The Big Closet of Unwanted Computers is a mess with things scattered everywhere. After taking the six unwanted Lenovo Chromebooks I found another Lenovo, so I casually grabbed it and took it home.

it looks almost exactly like the S330s I rescued. Ah... except for the Windows sticker on the back.

Windows 11.

I *don't* think that was meant to be there. I'll be returning that puppy today.

And I don't think I'll be taking the big 'cheese grater' Macs. Even with handles I'm not sure I can heft them. The All-In-Ones? I'll schlep them out the door. I just can't reach most of them right now. The one I could reach had a sticker on it that said, "Bad Drive".

*side look* Is that all? I inserted a USB with a Linux boot image and *boom* up it came. It looks pretty sweet.

Work is busy with things going wrong. The problems are deeper into the system and my work depends on things going correctly in other places. So I have to sit and fret about things going south that *I can't fix*.

Frustrating.
