I don’t often talk about computers, as there is some mystery to them for me, notwithstanding that I had a PC 1 in IBM’s “First Day Window,” and wrote a book on…, well, it doesn’t matter so as it was so long ago. I can get around my system fairly well, though I don’t like to admit it, and can’t recall ever calling a tech to come to my office.
The point here is that computers continue to surprise me. I use two displays, for various reasons, not the least of which used to be to run MSNBC or CNN at on one while I working and not listening to music. Several months ago, mysteriously, I could no longer get the TV tuner to work, so I let it go.
Today, I gave it try so I could watch commentary on the Arizona immigration court decision and lo and behold, it worked.
Does it matter “why?” to me? Not at all. It’s just nice to see things work without questioning why…and leaving a bit of mystery in my otherwise unmysterious life.
