Hot Laptop + Hot Indian weather = Dead Laptop

Mon Feb 18, 2008, 2:53 AM
My video card has cooked itself and my laptop is toast. I am borrowing a laptop from the company that I am working for but it does not have an SD card reader so of course I cant get the pictures that I have taken off of my camera... argh!

My laptop is also 2 weeks out of warranty and I cant buy a replacement card on the internet. I have no idea how long it is going to take to get the part i need to fix it.

India via London

Sun Feb 3, 2008, 2:18 AM
I am sitting in a hotel in London at the moment because for some unknown reason I was scheduled to have a 24 hour layover before I leave for India.

I am about to embark upon an internship for a technology company in Chennai which is exciting. Unfortunately my camera is broken so I am about to travel in an interesting new place without the ability to take pictures.

Sigh

China or no China?

I need to decide whether I will take a class at the end of the year here that will involve me traveling to China. The class sounds quite interesting of course, that is why I am thinking about signing up. The only problem is that as a senior, most of my friends are seniors. Several of them are quite angry that I might be gone for the last month of senior year. That had not occurred to me when I thought of switching into this course.

Ahh, difficulties.

2000 page views

Finally up to 2000 page views, that is kind of cool all though nothing that I post is particularly big in the page view draw factor.

I think I am going to do another series of car wallpapers starting with the recent Koenigsegg piece, I need to develop a new technique though.

I also have a new camera which I am breaking in on things all over the place so there will probably be more pictures.
