as if anyone knew I was gone
Short story, hard drive crashed, then mother board melted. Took me a bit to get new parts and get them installed.
Moved to linux now after getting fed up with Vista but have winxp in vmware for a couple apps wine won't run. One thing that really amazed is how well XP and apps run in vmware almost to the point of better than natively installed. Very happy with vmware!
But its good to get back to business!
