Later I have to delve into the depths of the brokern Western Digital and dig out all my emails , photos and docs.
Here's my tally, recently, since Saturday:
2 broken power supplies.
1 broken motherboard
1 hard drive soon on its way out. (Death throes)
Okay, actually, that's not too bad, but it did knock out my two main PCs. I was, at one point, down only to my laptop. I have my coding PC back up with a brand new Antec power supply, so that's at least kept me from going stir-crazy on little laptop excuse-me keys.
I wonder if we had lightning recently while I was away or what was going on, exactly. It's probably not a coincidence that both power supplies died within 8 hours. Or maybe my shitty picking of three fantasy teams did it. Who can tell, who can tell.
