Title: RIP shana
Post by: idontwannaname on December 06, 2010, 04:50:14 pm

Well, once again, I have totaled a computer. So, I now have to go and buy a new one, tomarrow. Shana was killed by water getting into her case after my roof leaked all over my desk. 

So, as a  tribute to shana, and all the bullshit she delt with from me, i'm letting YOU name her predisessor, here are names I liked, but feel free to add your own, and which ever gets the most votes win.

Miku
Rin
Makala
John
Abigale
Chris
Jeminy

2 reasons.

Voice software. A computer wont listen to "Computer open this", it has to be a named program.
File finding. I have 98% of shana's files on an external hardrive. When I load them into the new computer, I need a way to tell Shana's old files from the new computers files. Hard to beleive, but I have a bionicle downloaded game from windows 98 still from bill, it's labeled as "Bills files/bionical/MNOLG" on the hardrive, which i just got out of shana.

btw, "bill" was my irst named computer, a gateway windows 98 :]

Nubie,

This is not entirely unusual to see, I have named my first laptop ever Brent (after my name) then I have gone to Brent-v2 for this laptop.  for any new laptops it will continue from there (Brent-v3, v4, etc.)  I still haven't figured out a good name for my desktop computer but I will cross that road when I come to it.  Probably DBrent or something like that.

Anyways idontwannaname, I pick Rin I guess lol.

Well good news, SHANA LIVES!

The hardrive was totaled, so my files WERE lost, however the CPU lived, and the external saved her information, and some of my hard saves.

My mods are gone
Screnshots
Downloads(SAMP INCLUDED)
Firefox
photos
Java
and alot of others.


But I am downloading and repairing her. I expect her to be online tonight or tomarrow.

Good to hear! Sorry to hear about your data.   As my instructor for my Network Technologies class has said:  Computer hardware is replaceable but if data is not backed up it is gone forever.

Sad part is,it WAs backed up. But when the roof leaked, my desk got soaked. Shana, the bottom of the screen(thank god its on a stand), alot of expensive books, the external hardrive(I tried to pull data, got nothing), my pager, my wallet, and my favorite pair of earphones! :[

I gave the name "shana" back to it, as the computer only needed a new hardrve, and is NOT a whole new computer. So, meh, same name.
