I\'d just like to say that Bill Gates gets a lot of crap, but today he saved my life.
I had just finished my five page final exam paper for one of my courses this semester. I was ready to print the thing, and damn was it good, when I thought, "What the hell, let\'s run spell check." *Click* then, WHAMMO illegal operation, Word will shut down!
I nearly killed myself. I started swearing and pacing, I wanted to break ****!! Finally calmed down enough to write down what I could see of my intro, and what I remembered of my conclusion. Still, pissed I reset the damn computer.
To cool off I played a quick round of Dr. Mario. I came back, shut down each program I could, then opened Word.
LO AND BEHOLD - THERE WAS MY REPORT! The whole damn thing, right there. The file, which hadn\'t been saved once, sported the tag line (Recovered). BRILLIANT. God bless Bill Gates.
