ita, I broke a whole computer by unplugging the keyboard. Some of us just have the gift ;)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't want the gift. Somebody take it back.

A virtual PC for every person. So this is web 2.0, huh? I have to say, it's a nifty idea. Perhaps more durable than a flash drive. Still, it's more comforting to have your data where you can degauss at need.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh.

Office suite (for G.ho.st Drive files): Zoho and ThinkFree

I've never used those - what are they like?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

zoho is pretty good -- for the word processing anyway -- I didn't have to lok hard for anything like i did for google docs

My connection is too slow to render g.ho.st useful. I like the idea, though.

Crazy Wiring, Part 5
I should take pictures of my new job and submit. It's not all I.T. wiring, but equally harrowing in places.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I got my desktop computer back from MicroCenter and my data is secure! And it works! And so on...

Except that I used to have a 640Gb hard drive partitioned into two equal size drives of ~320Gb... and now I only seem to see one ~320Gb (which shows 288Gb in Windows Explorer, but IIRC that's normal).

My question is... is this something that I can fix here at home, or had I better get on the horn back to MicroCenter and start complaining pronto?

complain, first.
