    I think somewhere along the line, there was a problem with the chair to keyboard interface.

    That blows. My work laptop`s hard drive crashed with no warning once. It took a few days but the geeks were able to recover my data onto some CD`s. I still don`t back up like I should.

    I spent two hours last Friday at the computer repair place with the owner trying to save it, but it was getting slower and slower and wouldn`t download my printer, he told me my best chance of saving my info was to stop before it totally burned out ..
    the new computer has a writable disk for backing up if I can figure out how

    Re: I hate computers

    External hard drives are great for this. Some of them have the one button backup, and they will automatically back up your drive for you. Might want to check into it. They can prevent a lot of frustration.

    Re: I hate computers

    I agree with Blk45, get your self an external hard drive, they are fairly in expensive and just plug into a USB slot. Or there are alot of online storage places that have decent prices for data storage...something like carbonite.com
    I like beer. On occasion I will even drink a beer to celebrate a major event such as the fall of communism or the fact that our refrigerator is still working.
