Toast

The drive in my laptop is toast.  The more time passes, the more it shows increasing signs of instability and dysfunction.

Like father like laptop!

Anyway, I have backups, which is good, but having to replace the drive means having to rebuild the system configuration first.  After that, I’ll reinstall all my apps and restore my data.

While it will take several days to complete the rebuild, I promise to post something more interesting either tomorrow or Sunday while I slave over this tedious work and try to get myself back up and running.

That’s assuming I can find a replacement drive tomorrow morning, otherwise I have to order one from on-line and wait for it to arrive.  But I’m pretty sure I can find a replacement at a local vendor without too much difficulty.

That aside, I will offer something more interesting in the next day or two whilst dealing with this sudden technological emergency.

Oh, and part of me is thankful this happened.  I was running out of space on that drive and already was pondering my next steps.  Also, I knew it was time to rebuild the laptop as it had grown slow and bloated over the past year.

Now my hand’s been forced.

This isn’t precisely how I would have addressed the issue, yet here we are.
