Question : Is this really you?
Answer : Yes, this really is me, Sandesh Singh.
Q: Where the hell were you all this while?
A: Well, the modem I used was a borrowed one, and one fine day the person who lent it to me found use for it, so I was left without …
Q: … But didn’t you get a modem when you bought that PC of yours?
A: Yes I did, but it is a worthless Motorola SM56 which is out of production, and it’s drivers are hard to come by. Forget Linux, I couldn’t get the XP driver working.
Q: Linux?
A: Yes Linux. It’s been my primary OS for months now. Although XP remains, for Quake III Arena, and academic purposes.
Q: So Windows still rules …
A: Excuse me? No, it doesn’t. But it does have it’s place in society. More on that later.
Q: So you finally bought a modem …
A: Uh … no … actually, a good friend of mine had a friend who switched over to broadband, so I get to use his modem.
Q: You are one cheap fellow …
A: Hey … gimme a broadband connection, I am ready to pay, but I wont spend another paisa on this worthless 56Kbps !
Q: So, what have you been upto?
A: Many things, actually. I have learnt quite a few lessons too. More of that will come up in soon-to-come posts.
Q: How soon?
A: Leave me alone! My vivas are due in a week … yaar, I need to study too. But I will write as soon as I get the time.
Q: As if I am dying to read your posts …
A: You aren’t?? Crap, what the hell did I write all this %^ for, then!?
