Hiatus

I'm back!  So a day or two before I was to post the next page of the comic, my Lenovo died...again.  It did so originally when the CPU literally melted while attempting to run Skyrim.  This was particularly irksome because I had purchased the Lenovo specifically to run games.  It was advertised as a gaming computer.

Except it turns out that gaming laptops are notorious for running hot - so hot as to melt a piece of hardware.  

So my Lenovo died.  I took it to two different shops, which both gave me the same diagnosis (burnt CPU), the solution being to "re-flow" the components - to melt them again and set them right.  The second shop got the OK from me, and did the deed, alerting me to the fact that the poor Lenovo could die in 5 years, or 5 days..."get a new machine ASAP!"

Naturally, I took me precious time, worked with a machine now slow as Christmas and unable to run games (while explaining the diagnosis the technician gave me a cow-eyed look and said with a knowing smirk, "all those games just burned it up!"  I smiled and nodded, internally seething over the notion that Skyrim (now a somewhat dated game) and Age of Empires II would destroy a machine designed to run games).  But upon "updating" to Win10 the machine once again gave up the ghost - and my old Dell (which no longer holds a charge) has lived 2-3 times its lifespan.

So here I am, now typing on a new machine!  I've decided to try out the Dark Side and work on a Mac - I love elements of the machines and the OS.  Now to run some Bootcamp and get Win10 (ugh) in order to run my precious Elder Scrolls and RTSs.

...Oh, and post comic pages!
