Craaaaaaaasshhh…

Spent the better part of the last couple of weeks recovering from a hard drive failure. Although all critical components are backed up ad nauseum, several items had escaped the last backup cycle. This presents no real issues other than major inconvenience.
Even with my files backed up, getting the system back to the level of functionality that I had before the crash is a chore. All of the shortcuts, file structures, etc. had to be reestablished and I am just over half-way back to full function. My main goal was to get the client work back on line and in process to deliver and then my work and projects restored.
This probably sets me back a bit on the refresh of the site as well as some other products we have been working towards.. Ultimately, however, I learned to back up the hard in the early '90s, so all critical information was safe and secure on multiple medias.
