Don't trust service men

Finally my laptop warranty expired and, after spending some time with google to find the service guide, I opened the damn thing. It's been overheating (again), so I thought it's time to do the fan cleaning... Turned out the fan and radiator are quite clean, the problem was that some dumb moron from the "authorised" service didn't put thermal paste between the cpu and the heatsink!!! This must've happened the last time I got it cleaned in the service (and they charge a lot for it). When they returned it to me, the fan wasn't working at all - they just forgot to reconnect it.

High Fidelity

Having watched the film (one of my top 5 films of all time :)), I instantly bought the book, the moment I saw it. Just finished reading it and it's the best thing I've read in a long time. Sometimes I had the feeling that I wrote those words. Certainly I don't have that talant to express myself, but it was as if I was reading my own thoughts. Now I'm afraid to read the other books by Nick Hornby - they just can't be that good. Damn, I thought that noone wrote like this and hoped to become such a writer one day, but that's the end of my dream :)

P.S. If you haven't watched the film - do it, and then read the book. A suitable age is required to appreciate them though. If you've been through a lot in your life - 25+ should be enough.
