Every have one of those nights?  I spent upwards of three hours last night working on the new box because it refused to connect to any network.  I checked everything I could think of without success.

Finally, in desperation, I shut down and unplugged the computer.  Waited a minute and plugged it back in.

Success!

While not necessarily a Windows issue (honestly, I’m not quite sure what happened – in the misty back corners of forgotten Vista forums someone mentioned something about static buildup on the motherboard) it did inspire me to create this poster.

    That was beautiful Ben *sniff*
    It’s amazing how so little can say so much and have everyone nodding in understanding.
