Pg39
Phew-one more page to go and then intermission time. Been a bit of a struggle the last week or so as I’ve swapped over to my new computer. Windows 10 is TERRIBLE. Scanner doesn’t work properly and photoshop keeps crashing. That’s progress for you-what works flawlessly on my 10 year old machine doesn’t work on the brand new system-I guess we just don’t have the technology to run Photoshop 7 anymore ;p Scanner is pretty new though and I’ve tried a newer version of Photoshop-also crashes constantly…
Luckily my brother has a Windows 7 disk, so I may swap over to that. Windows 10 seems more worried about trying to sell me apps and games than with actually allowing me to do my work. Basically-avoid this OS like the plague. Phew-rant over-now, back to getting the next page finished (if I can make any progress without photoshop crashing again).

Heh, nice Oscar Wilde / Willy Wonka reference =)
Lol-well spotted 🙂
You mean Gene Wilder.
Nah-the line from the film (delivered by Gene Wilder/Willy Wonka) is actually a quote from Oscar Wilde-so it covers both. I suppose it’d be more correct to say it’s an Oscar Wilde quote, but I remember it from the movie first and foremost, so I can’t really pretend to have learned it from the esteemed Mr Wilde 😉
And that’s what I get for not double checking first. It was the way Feldspar wrote their sentence, I had thought they had meant actor/character especially since the last names are so similar.
That’s okay-I get you. I must admit, I only found out it was an Oscar Wilde quote when I was checking to make sure I had the spelling/wording exactly right for this page-so it was news to me as well 🙂
Odd. I’ve been running Windows 10 since launch, not had so much as a hiccup so far.
Maybe it depends on what you’re running. The computer works fine-it’s just the scanner and Photoshop which are playing up (unfortunately it’s these two things above anything else that I really need to work). Maybe it’ll work better if I can get an updated version 🙂
Have you tried threatening it with a cartoon sized hammer and magnet?
Nope-might be worth a shot 😉
