Computer warranty

I bought my computer's CPU (Central Processing Unit ) one year and 17 days ago. My warranty was for one year. Yesterday my computer started making this noise like a bicycle with playing cards in the spokes.

I would guess it is the cooling fan. I looked in the unit and it was still spinning. Maybe it's dirty? I took apart the case and blew it out with compressed air. Put it back together, started it up - same noise.

It does seem to be cooling, so what's a little noise?

Irritating - that's what it is!

The sound is driving me nuts.

Some people would say the sound is about twenty years too late. Those are not nice people, even if we do share a common last name.

Nuts or not, I do know it's hard to write with my usual brilliance. I must now resign myself to the fact I will have to put our mediocre blog posts, like the rest of the world, while the sound is distracting me.

So when you log in one soon morning and find one of my usual titillating posts about the merits of women golfers wearing short skirts you will know one of two things have happened.

  1. I have taken in the computer to be repaired
  2. I have had too much coffee today and hit the CPU with a hammer
One sounds more reasonable but two gets me a 320 gb hard drive 2 gb of ram and a bright new shiny motherboard.

I told you there is advantages to being addicted to coffee.
