hi all little reminiscence
last week while we had rather more seasonal temperatures (ie it was warm), one of the most annoying aspects of computing in the 80s rapidly re-asserted itself: 1) QL would last about 15 minutes and then crash badly. 2) quickly check all the chips were seated properly. 3) wait 20 minutes for it to cool down 4) quickly rush to do the next bit of coding before it got too hot again. 5) back to step 3 i think i need to get a little noisy desk fan pointing at the heat sinks to complete the full 80s feel. any one got any tales of annoying little things which in retrospect are quite charming? cheers fern _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
