Besides, they are going to be changing to a new version which will likely render this version obsolete – so no point wasting what time I have, right?

Just finished the book...
4 years ago
and I have to say it was great. Unfortunately, the reading of it was a bit punctuated due to work and travel, but it’s the first book I’ve read completely in a long time, so that has to mean something.
I really feel as though this book will help me get more things done (ugh), because I already see several of the practises listed taking shape in one for or another in my own daily routine. And now that i have a bit of time, I will actually go through and do the whole “mind dump” strategy which the book proposes to try and get a handle on everything in my life.
Now, that said, I don’t think that this book is necessarily for everyone, and I don’t purport it to be some great near-religious tome as many people regard it, because in reality it is just a book of common sense – common sense which many people tend to overlook by needlessly over-complicating their lives. And I am definitely one of “those people”.
To any of you considering reading, however, or who have already started, I recommend making the time to see this book through to its end, as I am sure it will be of some use to you.
What a bitch that was!!!

Several months of toying around with every system setting I could find and upgrading / retrograding every driver I could find, and I finally got it working yesterday. I don’t know what I did differently this time, aside from perhaps the fact that the OS has been updated, but now everything seems to be A-OK.
Yay!
