I am really about ready to pull my hair out. My perfect little 12" screen laptop that got me so swimmingly through Nanowrimo 2003 is kaput. I've gone the Google route to try to figure out what the problem is, but I know as much about formatting hard drives as I do about the Lithuanian language. It's not going to happen. Buying a new laptop is not an option--especially seeing as I have about 29 hours left till Kickoff. It's not like I don't have a suitable substitute: Mark's 17" Dell will do just fine. It's just like dragging a refrigerator around with me. And I wasted a precious Nanowrimo "No plot? No problem!" sticker on that Gateway. Now, the sticker is worth more than the laptop. See? This is why I haven't ever stuck another Nanowrimo sticker anywhere. It's too much of a risk. If I commit, it better be forever.
