A bad way to start the day

Get to work, put my lunch away, and turned on the monitors. Hit Ctrl-Alt-Del and put in my password. Hmmm. Blank screen. Not a good sign. Monitors are on. Look at the computer and it's dark. Ok - power hit. Push the power button - nothing. Check the power cord and strip - ok. Try new power cord. Nothing. Sadness is settling in. My computer had died.

At 6:30am not many people are at work yet. Find one who has a spare laptop to borrow and go about setting that up to use till the service techs get to my machine. Probably just a power supply but its so frustrating to not have the machine you're used to. The laptop is much slower than my desktop and just not as usable. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day...
