My eyes don’t have Windows

Windows XP Pro won’t install on my computer! I tried at least 10 times, and I’ve even borrowed my client’s install disk to test it and it still won’t go! I resorted to phoning Microsoft as surely it couldn’t be my new PC, or could it? After being put on hold for 30 minutes the less than enthusiastic technician concluded it was a problem with my hardare. ARGH!!!! In madness I contacted Dragon PC for another round of fun. So I dropped it in and prayed to god they just sort out their s**t. In the designer’s world I had an appointment with a potential client today. Giera First National real estate wanted some brief advertising ideas but wasn’t able to agree to paying for using my services. I hadn’t dealt with this situation before, but agreed to think over so I we wouldn’t waste each other’s time. I don’t feel particularly good about giving free design services away either – but it may be worth the shot as it would be continuous work.
