despise poor quality
that is how I feel about cheap labour which spawns horribly poor quality. My laptops dead hard drive is a perfect example. I mean how good can it be if the bunch of poor suckers making the parts for it get paid peanuts, why would they spend any time at all ensuring the part is sound, for what reason? What is the cause of all this crap that's made in some remote locations where the person making the part haven't even heard of a computer before the factory was built beside his little village. What stands behind all this... well it's Globalization. We all know it and we all love it, until you get your car tire recall, laptop battery explodes, hard drive crashes after only two years of use, cell phone buttons don't work, etc. etc. etc. Well at least it's job security for the little village people who are quick to make the crappy replacement parts.

the day has come
when my laptop actually died... i think the hard drive is bust which is sad because that means I lost all my work emails and most importantly all my photos etc. :( this truly sucks, I still have hope in recovering it but it's fading with every passing hour.
