Whats the story with the crappy connection in the arts block recently? It seems we cant get a connection in Theather L anymore and now I actually have to listen to the crap some of those talking people down the front of the big slanty classroom talk. Anyone know what the dealio is ?

Scraggs

haha psych lecture yep had same problem!!

Red Alert

connections are sporadic in the eng building too, especially on the 2nd floor. not enough access points and too many people me thinks.

Yea I think they're running out of IP's to allocate. They're reconfiguring the network over the next few weeks so hopefully that will sort the prob.

Computer Services + Reconfigure = Yikes!

I went over to mention the problem to Computer Services, but the man was simply rude and said if i wasn't literally parked next door to one of their new fancy (and might I add metal) signs they couldn't provide support.

Dosen't help when you're trying to get notes when you're in L and M....

I dislike Computer Services strongly.

You see, te people who work in Computer Services aren't actually from the planet Earth. They just stare blankly at you if you attempt to communicate with them, and obviously their own attempts are futile, given the fact that they speak a language that is just gibberish to anyone but their own species.

The best move is to avoid contact with all such beings entirely, and if you have problems with Computers, well...

...C'est la UCD

But Justin is so nice... why are the rest of them deceptively smiley until you need help?

I'd have to agree that Computer Services are 'tards. It took 2 of them to do the 30 second job of registering my laptop on the network. Someday I'm gonna walk up there with a clue-by-four...

Red Alert

I wish i'd loaded Gentoo onto my D600 before I got it registered just to see would they know what it was running at all

EDIT: i'm really jealous of those with iBooks. wanna swap for a nice dell clunker RK?

Hell no
*holds onto iBook for dear life*

Do install Linux on your Dell box though
