I am getting sick and tired of Microsoft. Hell, I took printing in high school, which included hand-set printing and offset, and I swear that I could have shit done faster and better the 1930's way than I can with these Microsoft programs!
Some of my peers give me confused looks and say I don't know how to use the software. All I know is that the computer lab techs always admit that it is a computer or system problem, and not me!
AND..OH BEWARE of DELL computers with the vertical CD drives! CDs can and will fall off inside the computer and FUCK everything up! I just bought a brand new $20.00 music CD that I have been wanting for some time...had it for one week!
I am now trying to complete a report for one of my classes. All I needed to do was post and paste some jpegs to a Microsoft Word Document, add in some text boxes and aarows refering to paticular parts of the images, then group them. Six simple images all together. Simple-UH! 12 hrs plus...I should have just printed the jpegs and used a SHARPIE! Anyhow, I am always told that it is either software or Dell graphics car problems! I don't give a FUCK....I just need ASU to have computers that WORK! And ya, I did try putting everything into text and object boxes...but the computer is being VERY touchy!

I don't know what is going on. Every time I turn around and have a problem the computer tech people here say its some type of system problem...usually graphics card or network.
Anyhow, here is the problem:
I am doing a report for my Strength of Materials class. We ran tensile tests on several types of materials samples, and the tensile tester recorded the results on an analog load vs time graph. The graphs were then scanned and sent to each team member as jpegs. I copied and pasted the jpegs to a Microsoft Word document inside a text-object box. Then I drew in some text boxes so that I could highlight certain parts of the graphs, and used the drawing tool bar to fill in some aarows from the text boxes to their respective points on the graph. So, once drawn in, I tried using the "grouping" command to group these objects, and the grouping command did not want to work, it finally did and was very "touchy", doing different things with each jpeg! Then there was some kind of graphics card problem where a majority of the report would disappear form the screen whenever the mouse was moved. Took several minutes for image to regenerate.
Going back to the rest of my report, need to take info from the load vs time graphs and use Microsoft Excel to generate stress vs strain graphs.
