Sometimes I think I suffer from Techie’s Disease
Being a technology expert isn't always what it's cracked up to be.
Take this morning for instance when I was checking email about 20 minutes before I had to leave the house. It was just then that a little magical window appeared on my screen telling me that the iPhone 3.0 software was available for my iPhone.
Here's a list of reasons why a message like this should be ignored in this situation:
- I was checking email not checking for iPhone software updates
- The update for a major software release like the 3.0 software will most definitely take longer than the 20 minutes I had to install
- I already ordered the new iPhone 3G S which will have the 3.0 software pre-installed and will arrive on my doorstep tomorrow.
Now let's look at the list of reasons why I should not ignore the software update message:
- The new 3.0 software update is just so cool and I can't wait to try out all of its new features
Care to guess whether I could resist the new software update message? I'll give you a hint. My entire schedule started about 30 minutes late today.
But the new 3.0 software update really is cool!
