Vote #458

The following question was presented:

Well, my new computer seems to be running perfectly. We had a slight hiccup today, but managed to figure it out pretty well. Technical stuff, so it kept me happy. Essentially I had to tell a program to use the GPU to process resizing of a stream rather than using in memory software. Boring stuff for most of you. The plan is to re-image the old machine, clean the crap off it and let William use it to play whatever he wants on it. You just know that as soon as I wipe the contents of my old machine, then I'm going to remember something I need off it. How long do I wait until I wipe the contents of my old computer?

Analysis:

3 months! Wow, that's a really long time. So you think I'm going to ask William to wait 3 months before he gets a computer to play on. I can only think those votes are coming from people that have never had children. The computer will be wiped as soon as I get chance.
