Laptop is Taking Flight - Afternoon Delight

August 1st, 2005

Not really a delight - just an opportune time to quote Ron Burgundy. I have no idea why, but my Inspiron 9100 runs with the jets kicking all day long. Approximately a dozen or so times a day it really gets going and sounds as if she were a plane getting ready to come in for a landing (maybe I am stretching it a bit) - volume level not quite that of a landing jet, but the same overall sensation. The engine thrusting forward a bit, then gently easing off as it comes in smoothly.

I was hoping that by now I would have my phat PowerBook G4, but we decided to make a small hardware purchase for an employee, and wait a quarter for new laptops for the bosses. For the time being, I am having Boy Wonder save the contents of my current aptop, and wipe her clean. Maybe that will keep the decibel level a notch or two lower.
