Picayune rant about computer technology:

I bought an HP laptop a few months ago as an backup for my moribund 2011 Dell. I don’t use the HP that much, but when I turned it on this morning, it started up I. The blue-screen “working on updates” mode - which of course, can’t be stopped (Windows 10).So far, it has been on for 35 minutes and seems stuck at 84%. Is this normal? Or does Bill Gates get a bonus based on hourly rates?

I’ve had a couple updates from them for Win10 that ran for over an hour before finishing successfully. And restarted the PC like 3 - 4 times.
