Martin has spent the past 2 hours downloading a new operating system, called Fedora for his new toy. It had not quite finished by the time he went down the pool for a swim, so he left it running. He has also just spent 30 minutes carrying his new mega-big computer-toy back from China-town and looked absolutely exhausted, but there were no taxis as the police had closed off the street for some reason.
In the meantime I have been watching "the Holiday" on DVD, drinking red wine and looking at houses for sale in Cambridge, UK. It is frustrating not being able to buy a house here, so I look elsewhere. I did find house in my old street, Harvey Goodwin Avenue, which I quite fancy. In any case I decided to stop multi-tasking and focus in the movie, so I closed the computer.
That killed the almost finished down-load.... so, I am not really looking forward to Martin coming back from his swim hoping to install it.
I did re-start it... it has done 5% and estimates another 3h 22min.
In the worst case I will offer him a copy of the latest Linux Red-Hat, but it has no license ;-(
