Life takes many unsuspected twists and turns. Unfortunately, one happened rather recently. My 12" PowerBook G4 took a turn for the worse a bit over a week ago. The hard drive and flex cable failed, leaving me without a computer to work with or write with.
Thanks entirely to Apple's excellent warranty and Small Dog's excellent service technicians I am back up and running! I hope to start posting regularly again, but it will be a few days before I have everything squared away on this machine and back up to date.
Rest assured that I lost only one week of data as the failure occurred on my backup day, a Sunday, so the loss is not at all devastating. With that said, I do plan on improving my backup scheme and doing things even better than before. And, if I may say so, I think I did them rather well.
I lost some photos, but since almost nobody who reads this blog sees my photos anyway that's not a big deal to any of you. I also lost a very important phone number which I got back within an hour of having the computer online. So minimal losses all around. Smile!
I'll write more about something more interesting soon.
