So my computer died.
Our Circuit City card was current and we got a good deal on a floor model Acer.
Except, it has Vista.
Now when I knew the Dread machine was dying, I transfered material to an external hard drive. All my music. All my movies. About 2000 songs.
As of today, I have 606 files, 104 G about on the F drive. I deleted nothing.
Windows Media Player and Vista ATE MY MUSIC!
*headdesk*
All my Maid in the Myddle. All my Leslie Fish. All my Skinny White Chick. All gone.
Everything I ripped off albums I bought.
And to top it off, I can't run .avi movies.
Well fuck me sideways. Take warning, folks. Vista is Bill Gates's latest attempt to hold sole dominion over your computer.

I had my own 'omg my music!' scare earlier this year. And then my old computer just decided to work again. And I frantically backed it all up.
One more Yay!
