"Don't worry, I'm giving up on anything"...don't you mean everything? XD
Just kidding...wow, this really sucks though. :(
At least you're staying though, is it just me or is a lot of people's computers having trouble around this time? The way mine has been acting lately, I could be next...>_>
Wait, how did your computer die exactly? I mean, if the hard drive is fine and it was something else then you're good on that part.
