Eww. I feel your pain. One time my computer crashed when I was in the middle of writing my final paper for some seminar. At 2 in the morning. Good times.

I hate the blue screen! I got it the other day after I downloaded Windows Defender (bastards). But luckily I got my nerd best friend to help me resuscitate it and I deleted Windows Defender. I fear for the day I cannot fix the shit myself and that day I will cry

If the conversation veers into wireless phone services, I will say that I received the rudest-ever email from a Verizon customer “service” rep last weekend. I’d guess they get a kickback from whatever pharmaceutical biz makes blood pressure meds.

I hate Norton. They freakin’ suck. There is some password manager that I kept trying to turn OFF all the time, and every time there was an update from Norton, it would – voila! – be baaaaaack! Of course this totally effs with Windows’ password manager so much that they either 1. cancel each other out or 2. freeze up the machine. Arrgh!

As far as iTunes and my iPod, I luffs dem.

AT&T, not so much… but that is the WIRELESS part of the company. Morons. But then, I think all cell phone providers suck pretty equally.

I have to go get new memory because mine went into a continuous loop, and didn’t stop. I almost would have been grateful for the blue screen of death. I am glad you said that about ITunes, I need to remember that.

I have been to the Blue Screen and I know whereof you speak. In your experience you personify a successful Orpheus — whodathunk it could happen?

My stomach hurts just thinking about all that.

Truly cool! I don’t have iTunes, or an iPod, but this might just get me into the mood to buy one. Great customer service is hard to find.

Apple rules, often (not always). Oh, and on Macs we generally refer to the “spinning wheel of death,” but it sounds like the blue screen of death is even worse.

I have to take one of our computers in somewhere…I hope they can salvage what’s on it.

Norton is useless. Download Avast- it’s free, and I’ve NEVER had a virus as long as I’ve had it. Wish I could say the same about Norton…

That was extremely cool of iTunes.
