My glitch-prone, randomly resetting computer is going in for brain surgery. And will be returning to me a changed machine. The final straw was when it disposed of all of my writing since March.

Because many geeks of my acquaintance are blaming the operating system, rather than the computer, we are going to have a Windows-Ectomy done. When this machine returns, if it returns, it will be using a Linux Operating System and Ubuntu. In other words, I may only be able to reach out to you all via the public library for a few months. Or, I may be very happy with the change and start preaching on the street corners against Windows world domination. We shall see.

Hold my virtual hand, for I am terrified by computer innards.

Ta for now from my humble little computer.

Rae

Good luck!

I have to take my broken laptop in to get fixed and I hope that: a) I don't have to pay too much, and b) they are able to save everything, or at least as much as they can!

Computer issues

Speaking as a very paranoid computer user. Go to the store, buy a portable external hard drive. Follow the instructions to tell it to back up your writing file automatically every two days. I know money is an issue but writing files are not memory intensive and so you don't need a large drive. I am incredibly paranoid and have two back-ups one of which spends much of it's time offsite in case of fire.

Interested in you,

This is just a transparent strategy to avoid talking to me on IM isn't it? Get that pc fixed - and I hope your writing is not a total goner?
