Yesterday I bought a new computer which I wanted to use as server. And what happens? The same day my old computer breaks. Perhaps the punishment for buying a Mac Mini.

LOL aint that always the way. Mind you, imagine how boring life would be if everything always went perfectly.

Better yet, imagine, how rich you would be (and for that matter, everyone else), if everything always worked as it should 
(it's strange however how things with a warranty of a year usually brake down after 13 or some months, isn't it?  )

Not this time. The one that broke is only three month old. So it is not really my problem. Nevertheless, I don't really need the extra time to have it repaired. |

Great, just great. Yesterday I got my compter back. Repaired within warranty time. Did not cost me one penny. The same day my new 300G external hd crashed. Wasn't even a week old. Has cost me some films I have not burned

You know, every electronic device I buy is usually broken or breaks after a few days. Then there's 2 weeks of servicing (sometimes more, if it returns to me unrepaired for the first time). It has always been like that, I got used to it with time. Among those things I could mention a few TV sets, a few phones, a few computers, an electric shaver, lots of stereo equipment, scanners, printers, etc. So I wouldn't complain about just one computer and an hdd.

The think which bothers me most is that I transferred the same day all my files from my internet computer to this hd. I deleted everything on the old hd because I wanted to sell the old computer. The loss is not that terrible. A few days mail, a few easy to replace configuration files, but all started downloads. And a few films I did not burn. Of course I don't make backups of unfinished downloads. The really important stuff is always safe and secure.
