Scumbag technology.
Computer works perfectly when all I need it for is procrastination. As soon as I actually need the computer at a certain time, it refuses to turn on.
First time that happened, it wouldn't turn on in the campus library for 15 minutes, which made me late for a meeting.
Second time, I was supposed to use it to write an exam, and it wouldn't turn on for the whole evening.
Last time, I had to use it for a presentation. It was working fine in the few days past, and even on the presentation morning, but come the critical hour - nope, turning on is too much trouble for this piece of metal rubbish.
I am fond of my computer, but it can really be a jerk.
