After a quick reboot my PC is running a whole lot better. Menus were no longer coming up, and the computer was somewhat sluggish. Rebooting improved things significantly. I don’t think it was running out of RAM but other resources. I suspect that I need to do a rebuild of the PC, but right at the moment I would rather keep going and wait 3-6 months for when I replace this laptop anyway [Two years is about as old as a laptop should get before being replaced IMHO].

I have decided not to go into the computer show. There are more exciting things to be done here, like tidying my office, and also getting some work out through the door.

The SMH is reporting on a Letter that reports that the skull of the famous indian Geronimo is actually buried in the Skull and Bones secret society in Yale Uni in the USA. The Skull and Bones society is the basis for the movie THE SKULLS, and has President George W Bush as a member (although the rumour is that he only got in because his grandfather was a member).
