Jornada Killed, iPaq To Live On
MartinG writes "According to the news at handhelds.org "HP/Compaq merger completed. HP Jornada will be discontinued in favor of HP iPAQ. HP Labs will continue to support Linux on the iPAQ. In particular, we plan to complete the Linux port to the Jornada 56x." I couldn't see any further details, but interesting news nonetheless."
Its been 3 months since my last bootup into Windows ME. I thought I could control it - I said to myself, I'll just boot into it quickly and have a short game of solitaire - just for old times sake - Surely one game wouldn't hurt?
,everything. The continued Blue screens should have been a warning, but I relentlessly configured and played... I even.... [choke] ..... used Clippy...
Well, that game of cards, became two games of cards, then 3, then 4, then 9. I was using Windows for hours - not just cards, but the hard stuff too. I loaded Office and started making Powerpoint presentations. My wife came in at one stage and asked how long I was going to be - as I had been there for 5 hours at that stage. I lost it. I yelled at her to get out and to leave me alone. She ran out crying, and I kept using Windows.
The night crept along into early morning as I continued my descent into hell. I ran every applet in the control panel - I changed my wallpaper, screensaver, icon spacings
At last my body could take no more and I fell asleep on the keyboard at 6am exhausted and spiritually battered. I called in sick the next day - my boss asked if I had 'fallen off the wagon and pulled another bender' - I denied it.
Well I cant deny it anymore, I'm a microsofholic and I take each day at a time. The reason I'm writing this is to give hope to the others - you are not alone, and help is available. Just take one day at a time.
oh yes i want it in my ringpiece and it will hurt so bad.
Mod-point wasting post!
What's wrong with "conservatory"?
Here goes the last of my posting bonus...
Easy come, easy go. I just got my karma back up to 50, might as well go on a troll shopping spree. I mean, what's the point of having it if you can't misuse it?

True, but your Mom's anus is 63 years old. I'm not complaining about it, since I rode her doggy style last night. It became quite messy though, her hemorrhoids burst and blood oozed out onto your bed. Good thing you have dark red sheets. She said, "My son doesn't care, I often find bloody, soiled sheets after his Linux hippie boyfriend spends the night with him."
Who gives a shit about this, only gh3ys have iPAQs.
