Okay, yesterday we had a lecture in the computer lab (which is how I was able to post from lecture).
Anyway, the reason it stunk so bad is that nothing worked. He evidently didn't try out his technical stuff prior to lecture, and the meager computing resources here did not help the situation.
Seriously, the computer labs here are like, 5 years out of date. It's kind of pathetic when you are using a Pentium III computer for a multimedia presentation over a network.
Where is my tuition money going?
Anyway, long story short, it was so bad the professor ended it lik 15 minutes after starting it.
What a waste of time.
