Off Line and Back Again
September 25th, 2008. Filed under: This & That.Hopefully, this will be the last time my computer is down. It was the monitor this time. I have a brand new HP 19″ monitor sitting here in front of me. It’s a very clear picture and feels huge compared to my old 13″ monitor. It has built in speakers which I don’t have working yet. My knees don’t always cooperate, so it was probably a funny picture I made down on the floor, scooting around trying to get everything hooked up correctly. Consumer Man set it all up when I first moved in here. Now he’s on a job on the other side of the state, so it was up to me to get down under the desk this time. I do appreciate his setting things up here, but it was a real mess of tangled up cords under my desk. I finally just unplugged it all so that I could get some of the tangles out. Somewhere along the line I must have missed the speaker cable or just didn’t get it plugged in correctly. A little later I’ll start jiggling and plugging again so I can have sound to type by. I do like being able to slip in a CD to keep me company.
