My PC at home has failed again. I think it may have breathed its last.
I will probably be offline and unable to post in the evenings for the
next few days at least. Posting this from work whilst on night duty
for the EU summit and hoping the night will not be too long ...

Could the processor be overheating in the recent hot weather (which I
assume Brussels has also experienced)? If so, then when the weather is
cooler again the machine may be fine (though obviously a failure
whenever it's hot is tedious, so a replacement for the chip and/or fan
might be a good idea).
