icarusHi. I'm back, though I'll be off-line (except for stories) for the rest of this month - behind on a lot of computer-dependent homework, among other things.
We were very lucky. We lost a lot of data and the system is a wreck (i have visions of swabbing hurricane decks), but the hard drive survived. I was up all night cleaning up the mess, opening up randomly labeled ship-wrecked directories and squinting at incomprehensible lists of numbers that were once neatly labelled files.
You computer geeks will recognize the symptoms: yep. My file allocation table was over-written by Windows.
Welp - have to get back to mopping. *waves, shoulders virtual cleaning equipment and disappears, whistling.*
