Murphy's Law in operation
Who does not know what Murphy's law is? And who hasn't experienced it? Right now, the one whom the famous law has chosen to play tricks on is our hero of the day, henceforth referred to as R, or rather it is his comp. The story actually started a hell of a long time back.......
Once upon a time, so long ago, that I do remember how long ago...hmmm....about 4 months, R decided to upgrade his Linux from Version 9.0 to Version 10.0. So he takes the help of his friend A, who happens to be a Linux God to help him in that, coz you know R is pretty dumb in these matters, especially when it comes to Linux. He probably fits into the category of dummies, for whom Microsoft has created an OS and called it Windows. Some people can consider presenting R with 'Windows for dummies' as a birhtday gift, which by the way is still about 4 months away. So, now with V10 installed, he found out that Windows had decided to fly out of his windows. Ok, what I mean is suddenly it seemed to have disappeared , for reasons unknown to R, A and many other studs.
R then puts fight for a few days to try to get the lost Windows back, but sadly in vain. So, like the fox that Uncle Aesop has talked about, R decides that Windows is useless, and decides to become Linux-man. He thinks this is a nice opportuinity to learn Linux. He thinks A can help him. This goes on for a few months, till R gets pained with Linux, for he could watch no movies, nor could he play his favourite game the Age of Empires. He could not enjoy music from Raaga, nor was his yahoo messenger as pseud as the one available for Windows. Well......there were many other reasons for him to get pained. So R one day finally decides that it was time got windos back.
First, R tries to install it in his C drive. It fails. Then he formats his C drive, and then tries to install. It fails again. He gives up for the evening and goes to crash. Next day, he takes a back-up os all his favourite song collection, and formats the entire hard drive. He also removes Linux from his system. He thought that starting afresh might solve some problems. Now, he tries to install again on C drive, it fails. Then he tries on D drive, and this too fails. Now he is simply at the end of his wits. Doesn't know what to do. Poor chap, he has an assigment to do, misses chatting with all his friends (interpret it as you want). And he has no comp.
I only hope R soon gets back his lost soulmate.
