Oops...

You know all those beepy noises a computer makes when it's giving you an error message?

On the way home tonight, I was listening to the radio, and halfway through a song it suddenly dissolved into lots of Error Beeping.


Then, after a few seconds of embarrassed silence, the announcer came on and said, "Err... sorry about that. We switched to Windows 7 this morning... Uh... sorry..."

*grins*



*huggles my new Mac*

Sorry to disappoint you, but it could have been a joke. Hardware beeping would probably not have much to do with a new operating system. :P

Laugh away, if you must (sniff)

Oh noes.

For I am PC-bound. I shall keep my netbook XP alive as long as possible, I think (but drop my laptop Vista asap, obviously).

I've had far more trouble with snow leopard than any windows machine has ever given me.
Why? Because apple don't pre-release their operating systems or tell anyone what's going to happen. They just dropped a bunch of functionality, breaking half my apps, and left the app developers to fix it.

Windows on the other hand, at least gave warning before releasing crap (vista) or good (7), so developers had a chance to release versions that worked on the new platform.
