Computer Down, ahhh!

So yesterday booted up my laptop and then it started. The horrible clicking noise from the hard drive and then nothing. Hard drive failure the techs say and unable to recover anything from the drive, ahhhh!!! Don't you just hate it when that happens?

Anyway, the cost was going to be close to $400CAD for a new hard drive and for the techie guys to install it. What's the point, just as well buy a new computer with warranty and everything.

So glad to have a back-up!

There is some good news after all of this. I have just set-up my new laptop and just signed into my WA account and found that I have just got my first sale! Woohoo!!! Only been here for 27 days.

Onwards and upwards!

Thanks

David
