Computers

Just about everyone can rant for hours about an encounter or two they may have had with computers. Well, here's mine. So our computer is a few years old, which in terms of computers is ancient. Rencently I've been getting a warning on my computer that we're running out of hard drive space. This I can understand due to the loads and loads of pictures on here that I keep meaning to burn to a CD. Now I know I was playing with fire when I ignored the warnings, but I had no time to deal with it now. So today I'm working on more patterns and need to burn a couple pics to a CD to go have copies made. I load 6 pictures into the comp. to burn and the comp. tells me that there's not enough space to create a back-up to burn these to CD. Fair enough. It also tells me how much space I need to create: 63MB. SO I go into remove programs and decide to get rid of itunes mostly because Gilbert told me to. Anyway, half-way through the uninstall process it tells me that the computer doesn't have enough memory to preform the task. Ummmm. Does that make sense to any of you, or is it just me? Why do I need more memory if I'm deleting a file just to free up more memory? Argh. So then I had to remove my Medical Terminology program so that I could remove itunes all so that I can load some pictures, burn them to CD, then remove them from my comp. Well, obviously I lived to tell about it so it wasn't too bad but it took up an hour of my day that I really needed. Now it's time to make dinner. Yea!
