Recovery Disks
Traditionally computers have come with recovery disks (or system disks) containing the operating system, and all the software that allows the computer user to reinstall the operating system and the software that came with the computer. Recently, rather than selling a computer with recovery disks, some computer vendors are expecting users to make their own recovery disks from a recovery partition on the hard drive. This saves money because there is no need to ship a disk with the computer, but it is in no way good for the computer buyer.
Pollie Pedal
I am riding in the Pollie Pedal and would like your financial support to sponsor my ride. Pollie Pedal 2008 (a long-distance bicycle ride) will begin in Melbourne on 31 March and finish on 8 April at the Westmead Millennium Institute.
Money raised by Pollie Pedal 2008 will go to the Westmead Millennium Institute for a prostate cancer research laboratory in their new building.
To sponsor my ride, please visit my fund raising page. Any amount is welcome. Thank you for your support.
Hammer Time
Watch out folks! Apparently my brother is thinking about things. Who knew?
My brother Tim has started his own blog, Hammer Time. To keep up to date, you can subscribe to his atom feed. I’ll be expecting some insightful observations about AFL, Christianity, and … other things. Bring it on Hammer!
