I also try to have at least two external hard drives that have pretty much everything duplicated on them. BTW If you have important things on floppy disks etc. back them up now. Some of my old floppy disks seem to have gone completely blank, or are not readable by the floppy disk drives that I recently tried to access them with. . . *Most* of what is on them is backed up to DVDs and HDs but I may have lost a few important files.Robin Edgarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06208142626285495635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412037333898091657.post-47350569778240814302008-12-14T23:35:00.000-06:002008-12-14T23:35:00.000-06:00It worked today!

I've been bad about that. <BR/><BR/>Computers are so maddening sometimes. Today I was in a tech rehearsal and my Powerpoint slideshow refused to open. Just refused. After working many times before. (*&#*(@@!! I had a tiny temper tantrum, and then moved on. I have until Monday to figure it out.Michelle Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13978494245326056983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412037333898091657.post-61926845737032854452008-12-13T21:34:00.000-06:002008-12-13T21:34:00.000-06:00"all my worldly electronic possessions are now sto..."all my worldly electronic possessions are now stored (thankfully) on an external hard drive."<BR/><BR/>Two HDs are better than one. I have four external hard drives and try have *everything* backed up on two of them. Even external hard drives can die on you. You should back up your most important files to CD or DVD.Robin Edgarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06208142626285495635noreply@blogger.com
