Posted on February 4 2001 by Mickey

    I really should know better. I was too quick to try installing Windows 2000 this weekend and I ended up hosing the hard drive. Actually, it’s not that bad since it only affected one partition, but I’ve wasted … Continue reading →

Changes

Posted on August 10 2000 by Mickey
