Technical Difficulties

I have never been very good with technology. I know enough to work what I use and usually, if its not to complicated, I can figure out how to work something new. This doesn't seem to help me anymore though. Everything electronic seems to be backfiring on me here at Purdue however. The day before I came my computer charger broke. Then, my phone charger stopped working and my service has been less than reliable. Also, I can not get wireless on my computer, use MATLAB remote, or get my DVD player to work on my TV. Needless to say, this has been very frustrating. It makes me wonder, am I just unlucky or am I completely clueless on how to handle my electronics? All I can say is that I miss my brother being able to fix any of these problems and having the security that I could rely on short wait time. Now, I have to find someone form iTap to take a look at my computer and at least get that problem out of the way. After that, I will make a commitment to not changing a thing unless I am absolutely positive it will not affect the setup of my system!
