Your Motherboard’s so fat…

Over the last month, I have finally managed to convince EVGA to accept a return on my probably-faulty motherboard. Unfortunately, I have to pay shipping in both directions as the board was imported from the US, and the credit cards I have tried have been declined. I must now wait for my new card to arrive so that I can give it another shot.

To pass the time, I have started watching Futurama from the beginning, having found an excellent deal in HMV last month (all 4 seasons reduced from £90 to £60, and bought with the 2 gift cards I had). Watching crustacean-aliens mate makes an excellent way to pass the time if I’m ever bored on a day off (!)

The job hunt continues, although it seems the company I worked with temporarily may have a new position coming up, so I am looking forward to hearing from them in among my other hunting.

The minor issues that have cropped up in the flat are being fixed one-by-one, and although I have to keep cleaning up (well I’ve had enough days off that it’s only fair), it’s all going well.

I’ll let you know how the job hunt goes, and hopefully I might start having some more computer and gaming related news once the desktop is fixed.
