Computers

My laptop computer, which I use for almost everything, has committed hara kiri. It looks like the temperature sensor has failed, because it sort of works, but the fan is always on fast, and the processor responds in geological rather than electronic timescales.

Luckily I paid for 3 years warranty, and it is two years old - but I shall still be without my main computer for the best part of 2 weeks, and then it will probably have to have everything reinstalled. Wonderful!
