My notebook suffered some sort of setback while at Cornerstone. I don't know if it was its time to go ... or if that piece of "hardware" that loaded itself onto the notebook when I hooked up to that wireless network did it. It's hard to say. It's changing how I do things, that's for sure. The immediate bummer part is all those emails in my inbox that may never get read. Were some of them stories being turned in by writers? Was it vital info? I bought a hard drive enclosure at Fry's yesterday and will try to save this critical data (which would be wonderful), and then I'll turn the notebook into Best Buy to take advantage of the extended warranty I bought for the thing (I'd highly recommend the extended warranty, which is usually just about $100, and it's almost paid for by the battery replacement that runs about that much anyway). I am convinced they'll wipe the hard drive in fixing it, so this is a necessary first step for me.
