Cntl - Alt - DELETE

Thursday as I started my morning at my computer, the damn thing died. I figured that a clicking sound from the hard drive simply could not be a good thing. Turns out that it was a complete failure of the hard drive and I pretty much lost everything - yes ladies and gentlemen I was the owner of a Dell paperweight. I can't complain though because I got seven years out of that box and it has served me well. I will be able to recover most of the information with time but this is never fun.

I hope that people in my circle near and far check in here from time to time even if you do not comment. Please do me a favor and send me an email with your personal/business contact information so that I can verify what I have and archive it properly.

Loving the Macbook Pro though.....glad that I made the leap from the dark side.

wow. bummer.

we're thinking of getting a macbook since jamie's puter is on its last leg. every now and then it will flicker and the light dims just a little bit more. bless it's heart.

glad you retrieved most of your information. that totally sucks. i keep thinking i need to back my junk up on my computer and my cell phone so if something should happen it's not all lost. thanks for the reminder.

Yeah, back up, back up, back up....
I have burned numerous CDs trying to keep some semblance of my stuff safe.
Of course its not as nice as a true back up, but still.
It must suck because I know you need all of your stuff for job hunting, etc. I wish you a speedy recupe-of-all your stuff.
Hang in there.
