The Big Crash of '07

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

For those of you who don't know, I had a hard drive go down, which was greatly debilitating. Thanks to God, the data was recoverable and I was hooked up with Nathan of Mac Rebuilders in San Diego. He's been doing a great job and helped me get up and running. Because of him, I was able to finally get these Europe images posted - among other things. Thanks, Nathan!

Here's a side-note. This event reminded me how important it is to have my data backed up...which it was. For those of you who work with important data, make sure you always back up your files onto DVDs - 2 sets for redundancy - and put 1 set in a different location in case of fire etc. Because I followed my own rule, I didn't lose anything other than the work done to the files. The 1-2 months of work that it represents is what was really troubling here. Good lessons!
