So, at 11:55:43am, it finally happened. The computer froze, and I left it for a full ten minutes before finally resigning myself to the task of rebooting.

Good innings, though.



The silver lining in all of this is that I verified that the big 25-metre Ethernet cable running along the hall to the kitchen still works now the new floor's been put in (as I tried to remotely access my computer from the old computer), and that I'm now all up to date on the latest OS, software and security updates that I'd been putting off because they required restarts.

Fun stuff.
