Talk About a Long Absence...
December 7th, 2007
Yes, in response to several emails I’ve gotten, I am still alive and kicking :) There haven’t been any posts on here in a while for several reasons, but the main one is, my trusty iMac G5 broke on me.
I was actually quite shocked about it as it’s the first time any Apple product I’ve owned has broken (lots of white dots all over the screen). Despite the 2 month wait for a resolution it finally arrived a day or two ago in the form of a brand new 20’ iMac as they couldn’t determine the fault (the latest model I might add).
(Needless to say I’m very happy that I paid for Applecare as otherwise I’d be stuffed (and I don’t just mean financially!).)
I’m still getting back data that I lost and setting things up how I want but rest assured I’ll be updating the site more regularly soon and hell, maybe I’ll even get around to that re-design I keep promising myself!

8th December 2007Congratulations, you're back! Now with Leopard, I hope you plugged in a "Time Machine" harddrive ;)
I once lost all of my data. Since I'm a litte paranoid and do daily, weekly and monthly backups on three different harddrives.

8th December 2007Yup, first thing I did was plug in in a nice 500Gb drive for time machine. No way I'm losing anything again! :)

8th December 2007Never say never…
Best is to have an occasional backup on another external harddrive. Store it in another house, in case of a fire or something else… Be paranoid ;-)
