Deaf Leopard

This is how I looked after 16 hours of formatting, installing, reformatting, reinstalling, restoring from backups, and wondering why I didn't choose some other profession.

The solution to my Leopard problem (and it isn't really a solution, but a workaround) was to format my hard drive twice and reinstall twice before the machine behaved with anything close to its normal speed. Each procedure took several hours, and I'm not a better person because of it.

Each time I clicked my mouse to be greeted by a 15-second spinning ball elicited a stifled cry of anguish. I heard myself say, "Why is it doing that?" and thought, "I've become such an end-user."

I'd complain to Apple, but who'd listen?

I try to remain positive and take solace in the fact that I don't work from my garage.

One of the cool things about my office is that I have outlets on the ceiling so, if I want to, I can use power cords to make the place look like the attic in Hellraiser.

The magic of your graphic frightens and confuses me. I'm sure it's some sign of demonic posession. Perhaps from your software?
