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.

Mudd's very computer savvy. he's like the MacGuyver of the Desktop. he's been building and working on computers since the TRS-8o, mark 1

We have 4 other computers--3 of which run linux-- that we can put the hard-drives into. The old one is a desk-top.

I say Yay!

I've only ever built one. So you're in good hands.

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!
