personal

crashed

My computer.  Has crashed and died. Really, what else is there to say.

All my clients pictures are safe and saved in both an external hard drive (that is currently hooked up the boys laptop where I’m writing from) and online storage too. My personal pictures too. So, at least I don’t have to worry there.

My email (all my saved emails, my address book) and my photoshop actions? I dunno.  I guess it’s a wait and see…

The IT guy we use around here just came and took my tower away and I’m waiting to hear the verdict. In the meantime…

Looks like I’m getting a Mac. I had done some research into going Mac a while ago and decided against it because of email issues with moving email from Outlook Express into the Mac (you can’t) and for my actions in Photoshop which are all Windows based so I’d have to run Photoshop in the Mac in Windows to get those to work. But with today’s development of possibly having lost all that anyway, I think I’ll just go with the Mac.

Mr. Mark at Rockville Camera has very graciously offered a Mac (G5 I believe) for me to try out and keep if I like it. I pick it up in the morning.

And in the end, if this had happened even a week ago, you would have seen me on the news going out in flames of torturous death. But now, even though it’s a giant nuisance at least all the major holiday work is done and I’m not on any strict deadlines.

Still…. just oy.
