Crazy Halloween weekend

As compared to last year October (2004), this year (2005) was a lot of requests from people who were trying to rent costumes. Tomorrow a batch of nine costumes is coming back, which means lots of laundry.

So far I have never been to a halloween costume party, but that kind of thing is very new here and only now starting to be picked up by the local population.

Last night my PC decided to give me a nice NTLDR not found message, which resulted in a reinstallation of Windows, since I didn't have write access to the NTFS partition with Linux (too experimental still and Microsoft doesn't want to share much info that would actually help the public [read here: software buyers]).

The version 2.2 patch of Dungeon Siege 2 gave its problems, ending with error code 15, which means: Cannot find an old file.
This was after a clean installation using the four original CDs.
Lately I have had a huge amount of problems with applying official patches to games installed with official proper legal CDs or DVDs. It seems like the quality of software is yet again getting worse.
