I think I'm cursed

The evidence is overwhelming; I honestly think I'm cursed. Yesterday, I had yet another hard drive fail on me. This time, the hard drive in my Powerbook died. And it died hard.

Amazingly enough, the drive died as I was backing it up. So, even though it didn’t complete the backup, it did copy all the important things (namely my Users directory) to the external drive before it bit the dust. If I'm not the perfect example of why you should back up your data (and often!), I don’t know who is.

I'm happy that everything important is safe, but what a hassle it is. I'm now without my Powerbook for at least a week. sob

Heed my warning: back up your data!
