Grrr *fume*

Well, the ol' hard drive on the swank G4 has taken a very serious nosedive after TechTool Pro had supposedly fixed it. This is not very good news. A lot of the files on it I could stand to lose, but the fact that several months' worth of CD ripping into my iTuns folder might be lost is slightly more than annoying.

So I spent the better part of (or rather a lot of, but not actually the "better" part, since the better part of Saturday actually involved Cicero's Pizza and the Beatles Laser Light Show at the De Anza College Planetarium) Saturday sitting in front of the computer screen while TechTool told me increasingly good news, then increasingly bad news. But it's incredible that, after all these years, it takes literally days to fix a damn hard drive. Or in this case, fuck one up even more than it was in the first place.

Oh joy. Technology makes our life easier... Right?
