Guy Programs PC To Rock Baby To Sleep

I Hate My GD POS Computer

I am so sick and tired of my PC. Every year, no matter what awesome anti-virus software I install, no matter how many times I defragment, regardless of a clean re-install, it just doesn't matter... my s#*tty PC still ends up running as slow as a freaking glop of goo from a used, three day-old tampon.

How slow is it, you ask? Every time I go to a webpage, or click a link, it takes about five or ten seconds to load a page up. Sometimes longer. Just to get the browser started is a feat with which only God can intervene (Safari, Explorer, doesn't matter which.) That wonderous miracle takes two to three minutes! It's insane. Yeah, yeah, I know... I should be happy I even have a computer... some people live in straw huts with salad bowls made from dried-up cockroach shells and ferrets that run on wheels to power pencil sharpeners. This is almost as bad. Very close, I would say.

And yes I admit that my computer is a Dell from 2001 or something. But still. It's been "system reinstalled," it has 90 freaking dollar anti-virus software, and it gets regularly scheduled maintenance. Nothing seems to matter!

The Macs I've used for twenty years at various on-the-job locations have had like, eight problems. Total.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGHH!

Okay. Helps to get it out. Anyway I think I'm going to transfer all of my files over to my external hard drive and do another re-install. I have to do it, this is just crazy. Not that I really know what I'm doing, mind you (I'm a Mac believer all the way) but oh well, I'll give it a shot. What do I have to lose?

I can hear it now, don't say it. "Go get a Mac!"

Dead Rising 2

I was just talking games with a co-worker the other day and one of the things I brought up was, "Where's Dead Rising 2?" The original Dead Rising is still one of my favorite Xbox 360 games. It was also an exclusive title for the 360 and sold like a bazillion copies, so Capcom would surely want to ride that gravy train, right?

Well, I'll be! Here it is!



This time around, the setting is Vegas and it looks really good. Apparently Capcom has been quietly working on it for some time now. I would imagine the company wants to stagger the release away from Resident Evil 5 (another zombie-themed game.) DR2 will feature more zombies on screen at once and more interactive items (ie; weapons). Plus, you can roll over zombies while inside a giant hamster ball, and who doesn't want to do that?

There's also some video footage which just leaked to the Net. Check it out:



Dead Rising 2 will be available in Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC formats. I haven't been able to pin down a release date but when I do, I will update.

Should be fun! Can't wait!
