Our main desktop machine died last week. Power supply failure, I’d guess from the symptoms. All the backups fully up to date and the drives readable from another machine anyway, so no drama. Actually an opportunity to buy a nice, shiny new machine! You can tell I’m a bloke, can’t you.
I had been flirting with the dark side for a few months with my Macbook Pro laptop, and decided to take the plunge and ‘go Mac’ with the main machine too. All now set up (pretty much) and working great.
Looks nice and shiny too…
