The fans revving for 20 seconds and the program opening it's loading screen: "Nice".
The fans revving for 5 seconds and the program is sitting at 0% CPU after 1 full minute: "fuck this bullshit." But you hold onto hope and wait another 5 minutes, and as your confirming to restart the PC the program starts loading, and you have to watch it load entirely before it's killed by the restart, and the restart takes even longer because the program actually opened.
Or,
You browser is loading homestarrunner.com and the loading bar stops at 10% like it should for 5 minutes, but the 5 minutes passes by, and you click the clock on the task bar only to see your mouse turn into an hourglass.
Fans revving? My 486 fans were either on or off, son.
