My wife is doing a bunch of work for her job, and I was up on our good PC playing City of Heros. About an hour in, she comes up and needs to use the scanner and some other office apps, and I get booted! 🙁

I need a second good computer... instead of just a crappy laptop backup.

We've all been there at some point. It's annoying too because they always say "well my stuff is more important". You have no comeback when you're goofing around. lol

Guardian, I'm only level 9 as I just started recently.
 
I can totally relate.

"I need to print something quick." or "Your internet is faster let me check my email." :roll:

Don't pry me away. 🙁

Why didn't you make her use the laptop? Just say "This application is much more memory-intensive than the scanner and office apps, therefore it would be a misallocation of resources for you to use this computer and me the laptop."

Set up the scanner and office apps on the crappier computer.

Not an option really, scanner and stuff is up in the 'office', while the laptop is in the living room. Can't upset the balance in the living room 😉

Geeks need love too.
 
I did a search for "scanner" and this thread came up.

For reference, I have found it easier to have a dedicated gaming machine.
This eliminates all kinds of BS with the office machine.
I only let in online long enough to download the CS:S patch that add bots. Then I disconnect it permanently.

So do fat chicks, but it doesn't mean they're getting it.

 
get a wireless card for the laptop? in this case a networked scanner could work.
i can't imagine her office work needing that much power. unless she's working with really large databases. or you have a really old laptop.
