Technological highs and lows.

Just a very brief post, partially since I'm still catching up on a lot of my backlog of internet-based business after the weekend-without:

High: I've finally managed to download the first three series of Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe [see also this post] after 6 months of being stuck at 97%:

I therefore spent most of last night watching them all, which made me very happy (and very tired at work this morning).

Low: Thanks to a combination of Windows and the stupid software that came with it, my brand new 8GB flash drive has locked itself down to a far, far less exciting 8MB flash drive. And the company that wrote the software seems disinclined to respond to emails.
