Movie Night

Saturday Marilyn and I went out and saw Vantage Point. It's a thriller about a attempt on the president's life. The move is a bit like Memento where you live the same point in time over and over again. But it gets the ball rolling just before you get sick of this device. I give it two thumbs up as a goods movie nice vistas of Spain in the movie.

Computer Crash


Well the disk crashed on the system we keep downstairs. I think the magic smoke was released from the hard drive. It sounds like little parts shaking around inside. I went to Best Buy and bought the smallest disk they had 500gig I bought 2 as I wanted to back up the server that has our pictures and music. So I walked out with a 1 Terabyte of disk Eeek! I never thought I would be talking about that much disk much less bringing it home. Then setting up to get the files ready to restore the downstairs system I trashed the laptop! Now I had two crashed systems. Well today is better as I got the magic disk repair CD from Barry the IT guy at work. It got my laptop running and then I go the downstairs sytem running and now I have both backed up. Now I partialy backed up the server, the pictures and music, and now I have to get the server backup software this weekend.
