Got any 2’s?
Great news!! The data on the old hard drive has been transferred to the external hard drive, and this drive has been cleaned up. I got a call this evening saying the genealogy and the journals were intact, and had been copied.
He says he may even be able to reformat the old hard drive, once he gets into it to see what’s going on. It doesn’t matter if he can’t because I now have the data I need. I am so relieved!!!
God is Good!
Exxxcellent news, 'Face!
Now I don't have to send you a computer.
It’s great that you got your work back!
Thats is REALLY great news!!
So very glad to know that all of your data is safe!
As for your “OS” dilemma...I just need more info, I guess.
I’ve been running Windows XP Pro boxes at home and at work for as long as that OS has been alive, and although the OS isn’t perfect, I can’t peg it with any issues. Nearly every software problem I’ve encountered has come from software NOT tied to the OS.
I skipped Vista entirely, and I’ve heard mixed reviews about it, but my HP laptop is running the 64bit flavor of Windows 7, and it’s been very solid, although the interface has taken some getting used to after all the years with XP.
I’ll add my voice to the chorus regarding OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org/); between that and Google Docs I can’t feature any need to fork out for MS Office.
