GAH.
My dad gets up late and assumes I'm still in bed, even though I've been fannying about the house since 7, so he sees my computer and thinks I've left it on all night, so he turns it fucking off, and now I have to use the other one with its spacky mouse and teeny tiny monitor until the proper compy's cooled down enough for me to switch it on without it getting grumpy.

If it gets hot enough to not want to be turned on
you need a new computer

It's just dandy in every other aspect,
it just needs a bit of time after it's been turned off before it likes you turning it on again.

On the bright side, at least it didn't take twelve attempts
to boot your computer up, and even after that you couldn't get it to do hardware acceleration.

Do Macs support PC games nowadays?
If so, I might consider some sort of trade-in.
( Reid got it going on like Donkey Kong, Sat 2 Jul 2005, 12:38, archived)

some of them
but games are for...um...people who like playing games.

I have a pc too. both is best.

In about a years time macs will have intel processors. then, I imagine, they will support PC games fairly easily.

I suggest next time you're up earlier than your parents on a weekend
You should announce this fact to them
