4 months Ago -
I turned on the Bluetooth on my cellphone to transfer some images of myself on to my laptop! But, for some unknown reason my laptop's Bluetooth wasn't working. Damn! I couldn't even transfer my pics. It seemed that it was a conspiracy to deprive me of my happiness. Somehow, I jugaadofied a data cable and managed to transfer it. But then, Bluetooth leads to a lot more convenience and pseud-pana. And for next few months at home I didn't have any source to jugaadofy the data cable.
I spent next 4 months abusing and cursing IBM Thinkpad and its useless hardware and software (whosoever would have been the culprit). I asked many people on how to cure this illness, but in vain. Probably my hardware was faulty. Or maybe it was software that was root cause of all evils happing inside my lappy. Due to lack of proper efforts the mission to find the culprit failed and was abandoned
In last few days, I managed to buy a new cellphone that has a data cable. But again data cable can't match Bluetooth. My usage also increased, thanks to GPRS connection. As a result my search for the Bluetooth solution intensified. I would like to clarify that the word 'intensified' in this context means that I was extremely desperate to get a long term solution without actually making any efforts to get the same.
And today, when I finally began my search, the solution was few minutes away. I just had to press Fn key + F5 to get it activated.
... And since 4 months I was thinking that my lappy's bluetooth has gone kaput. Little did I realize that getting it activated was just a 3.2 second job !
Alas, it is laziness that always manages to scuttle any such efforts!

haha,, you can call it GREMS syndrome dude, i also faced a similar prob with my DVD ROM and thought that it was nt working.. After 11 months of slumber i 'Googleofied' only to realise i had to make some minor settings for vista on my lappie :D
ReplyDeleteMaybe, GREMS syndrome it is !!!
ReplyDeleteBut it is really painful to realize that you missed on some comfort just because of avoiding few seconds of work
(... Though fear of this 'pain' wouldn't lead us to abandoning the holy path of laziness)
