Pat,
I've had no first hand experience, but I was told by a pro when I had
problems with my old computer that most of what is on your hard drive
can be retrieved even after a crash and total meltdown. It may cost a
few hundred dollars or pounds (a good way to lose weight, eh?) to get it
done, but it may be worth it. Along the same lines I've read recently
about being cautious with what you do with your used copy machine,
because there are those who buy them solely for the purpose of
extracting lots and lots of info for the purpose of ripping the previous
users off.

I drive nails through old hard drive for just that reason, then package them
up with chicken poop before I put them in the trash.

Thanks for the helpful responses.
>Next time you are in the market for a new computer, consider moving to a
Mac.
You are probably right about the Mac. I selected the PC because I have been
a PC computer programmer for many years- since shortly after they were
introduced in 1983. I know almost nothing about the Mac. With the PC I can
leverage my many years of headaches and frustrations I received thanks to
Gates. I *hate* windows. I will spare you the specifics. The only thing that
made it succeed was the huge momentum IBM and MS could impart to a new
product. Other competing GUI products were much more efficient and
trouble-free, back in the day. Have a few bones to pick with Apple too
though. I have tons of software and hardware for my PC's, along with my
years of experience, so I stick with it.
>All for the want of a backing up routine. 20 years work down the Swannee
I'm sorry to hear abut that. If the computer industry was doing its job you
would not have had that happen. And thanks for the good advice, but you are
preaching to the choir. I have several current backups on various media,
both for my PC and my phone. I worked in City Hall Info Systems Dept as a
programmer/analyst for over 20 years, after years in the private sector as a
network consultant and programmer. At one time we had over a thousand
computers without an official backup program. Some departments had their own
of course. I asked my management for an official (supported) backup system
as it takes me about two weeks to rebuild my computer after a complete
failure. The rebuild software setup I mean (so I keep an extra workstation
set up ready to go in my cube). They said they were working on a city-wide
solution, so just wait. Instead I bought my own via the internet. Next
budget year, in their presentation to the Mayor and Council, my management
cited shopping the internet for the best prices as part of their policy. It
was my purchase they were referring to. They still have no policy or
city-wide system. I can say this because I am retired. 2-1/2 months so far.
