I know many a people have probably already figured this out, and would probably tell me, 'no shit Sherlock,' but it's just been something I've been thinking about lately. For how advanced it can be, technology is really flawed. I know it will never be perfect, but I'm not just talking about the systems, I'm talking about the programs and the sites. The places that sell them are flawed as well. I have had my latop for just a week now, and the trial version of MS Office 2007 that is on it ended Monday. On my mom's computer it was on there for months!
Not to mention all the bugs I've seen on the computer. They can be annoying, but unless you are a computer expert or have the money for someone to fix it, (or have a friends mom who knows this kind of stuff) well, if you don't have that, you're stuck. I can understand computers pretty well, but teaching someone else is a bitch. The things I tell my mom don't seem to stick and she calls me down to help her while I am doing something and it's annoying as hell. My dad was worse though. He didn't even know what they little wheel on the mouse was for. Oh, and the cursor, he didn't know what that was either. Let's just saying, teaching him how to use a computer was a total disastor.
Well I don't believe I have anymore to say on this, mostly I was just bored since I can't work on my short story. Which sucks since I want to edit it so badly. >.<
Very creative post.
