[Warning: Muppet Alert - both me and supposed IT experts ...]

1) Laptop dies

2) Use work lappy, fine.

3) Mouse pad throws a tanty. Ooops.

4) Get own lappy back but run out of power Sattyday morning because THEY HAVE GIVEN ME THE WRONG POWER CABLE BACK. Still have work lappy but GAH

5) Get IT boys to check for me and if it had fitted properly - it would have BLOWN UP MY LAPTOP (way too high a voltage).

6) Send back to Toshiba after very nicely informing the helpful little man that a Compaq power cable does not fit Toshiba laptops!!!!!!!

7) Break computer at work. No lies ... It is gone to be reformatted now :<

So I am stealing someone else's desktop while I wait for mine to be revived ... They have been calling the company in Aus for tech support ... I really must have buggered it

How am I just such a disaster zone with regards to technology??????
