Posted on the Yorkshire MUG forum. Know how she feels!
Michael Corgan 1. Install/uninstall. Nasty. Very nasty. Time to do some ironing. Or clean the floor with a toothbrush.
2. Grey screen. Nerve-wracking. Will it happen to me? I know, take my mind off worrying about it - just think about a nice visit to the dentist instead.
3. Target mode. What the heck is THAT all about? It doesn't even make sense, there's no clue in the phrase at all as to what it actually means!
3. Kernel panic. The end of the world as we know it. Armageddon and oblivion. Even the phrase has me breaking out in a stevedore sweat! A recent thread nearly finished me off!
4. Restart. Über-scary. Tick-tock goes the clock, will it/won't it....forcing myself to stay calm.... surely it should have restarted by now?!?!?! Alfred Hitchock movies are tame by comparison!
5. Dropbox. My next post. I don't understand it. I hate it. Probably because I don't understand it. My dropbox is full and I need to do something about it. Tomorrow. Ah yes, tomorrow.....
6. Delete. DELETE??!!! I'd rather pluck my toenails out without anaesthetic! Deleting is akin to bungee jumping. It's a voluntary action but it might be horribly terminal.
One of the other members replies> So now she’s on Safari 7.1.8 and her system is noticeably faster and more stable.
I know I need to do the same. Maybe I myself would be more stable then, haha!
