My desktop machine (from which I'm posting this) is dying; it crashes, on average, every 5-15 minutes while I'm using it (it happens somewhat less often when I'm not) no matter what application I'm trying to use, even if that's the only application I'm running.

esrblog and I suspect that a thunderstorm that happened while we were at WBC fried something on the motherboard. That seems particularly plausible because there were thunderstorms while we were gone, and something also caused the heater on our waterbed to go temporarily haywire (when we got home, the waterbed mattress temperature was 114 degrees--not what we had set it for, needless to say).
Unfortunately, the best time for me to go in to work late to run the errand to have a new motherboard installed is Wednesday. So I'm unlikely to try posting again before then.
