Fixing computers is pretty mundane. It’s not often I get one of those moments when I can punch the air and shout “Yes!” But today I got a “YES!” moment, and it felt good.
I was installing Skype for a client. I had persuaded the over zealous firewall that Skype was not the work of the Devil but a safe and sensible application that could access the internet. I has searched for my client’s relatives on Skype and added them as contacts.
It was looking good.
I was just about to call the Skype test facility when the Skype rang, her sister was calling from the US. I sat my client in her office chair and clicked on answer.
I opened the video and the two ladies chatted for about half an hour. They had not seen each other for over ten years.
They were both delighted.
I was ecstatic.
“YES!” Punches the air.
Today it worked better than I could ever have planned.
