In order to more fully access Blogger’s features, which are limited under Safari 1.3.1, I decided to give a slightly older version of Firefox a try. Things were going quite smoothly until my computer decided that it wanted to hang. Force-quitting was not an immediate option, as I had already typed in the damned Ben Affleck entry twice, and I wasn’t going to retype it a third time. My computer was making a ton of fan noise – must’ve been driving the CPU nuts or something. So I finally managed to get to a point where I could copy the whole entry and paste it into a Safari window.
So to try to improve things, I attempted to download Firefox 1.5. Then the .dmg file decides it wants to display itself as gibberish characters on the screen instead of downloading as a file. It’s been that kind of computing evening. Time for bed.
