Back It Up!

Things I have learnt this week:
  1. As soon as you get out of the habit of backing up your files, you'll get the dreaded 'master hard drive fail' message. Bye bye files...
  2. Libraries are quite useful for emergency internet access.
  3. That message doesn't always mean the hard drive has actually failed...

In my case it looks like it may actually be the motherboard, and I may be able to plug my old drive into my new computer, and get the files off. But the message is the same: go back up your important stuff NOW!

Meanwhile, sorry for the silence while I wait for my new computer to arrive...
