Is it normal that the more you want/need a computer to work the more it doesn't

Say you have a presentation at work, need to quickly access your bank account to transfer funds, change the screen b/c someone is going to catch you watching porn etc. 9 times out of 10 when you need a computer to work the most, it stops or slows down to a crawl.

Is It Normal?

  • That's normal because instead of reformating the harddrive they want you to buy a new one.

    • No need to reformat/buy replacement
      STANDARD Microsoft procedure - reinstall
      Switch it off / switch it on - reset everything

  • I'm in love with a woman named Mary. When I see a beautiful woman I see her, when I see people in love I see her, when I sleep I see her, when I dream of happiness I see her. My heart aches and longs for her love.

    Mary I miss you so much

    @ Arm0se - Unfortunately you ARE very mistaken - it IS true.
    Re :don't have enough memory or have a fucked up hard drive or something and need a replacement.

    They come WITH sufficient memory - for what they are INTENDED to do.
    Just places like PC World - get commission for selling you warranty to protect the hard drive !!!

    this IS the 21st centaury - we managed to by-pass the millennium bug - what a lot of fuss that were.
    Quick you NEED to buy this or Windows will fall over !!

    It is just about making money !! $$$£££

    • There is NO such thing as a BAD computer - a computer WILL only do what U tell it -
      A computer is NOT clever it ONLY knows 2 things,
      yes or no
      on or off
      The MAIN problems with computers ARE user error !!!
      Bill (Gates - Microsoft) and Steve (Jobs - Apple)
      Stole their ideas anyway from Xerox !!!

      • Ummmm. First that's not true. I've taken over my friends computers more than once with a RAT just to fuck with them a little. Second that's not even what I was talking about. I meant they don't have enough memory or have a fucked up hard drive or something and need a replacement.

  • A few years ago, I got so annoyed with my laptop freezing that I shot it 10 times and threw it out the window and down 25 storeys.
