1. My router burns out, so I buy one from Amazon.
2. It’s defective, so I return it and purchase a Belkin from Best Buy.
3. Belkin sucks and I will never buy their stuff again.  I return it and get a Netgear router, which thankfully works.
4. The switch/hub in my home office insists on transmitting at 10Mbps even though it’s a 10/100 and I have nothing but 100Mbps cards.  So I bypass the switch and only have my server on a hard wire at the moment.
5. My Xbox 360 gets the read ring of death…
6. I sent it away and just got my Xbox 360 back from Microsoft, about 2 weeks later.  I had to uninstall and re-install all of my games and software, like Netflix.
7. My home server just burned a stick of RAM, corrupted a hard drive, and has an on-board video card that doesn’t seem to work anymore.  I suspect viruses at play, though I never download anything on that machine.  It’s strictly a media/data server with Apache for web access.

…looking for my boot disk to see how much damage has been done.  I am so tired of technology some days…
