I had a dream where I threw my laptop straight through the window glass, clear across the street. Then it randomly exploded.

... Quite honestly, I'm pretty close to making that a reality right now. If MMD (or any of my other "graphics intensive" programs) doesn't quit glitching out on me and becoming a zombie process, I'm gonna go nuts. Maybe it really is time to start saving up for a new laptop... either that, or hope I win the lottery. Sucks, though, 'cuz I want to buy myself a tenor sax that costs just as much as the doggone laptop I've been eyeing. (>->)

And my next gripe, Why the heck is there no way to get rid of zombie processes hung on Windows 7 other than turning off the power?! Seriously, though, I don't remember ever having this problem on XP or any other older OS of Microsoft's I've had. Can't even shut down the computer when those are active, and heaven forbid if the thing goes into screensaver or sleep mode... because it will never come out of it. And nothing I try to fix that works at all. All I have to say is Windows 10 better have these issues solved when they release it, because it's a PitA to deal with this for not one, but two itterations of an OS. (>A<)
