Its a miracle...
Im writing this from the PC at home we're finally up and running. The young man that came by said that Dell had no business telling me that all was lost, I should never have reformatted prior to a tech coming out. I am now a furious opponent of outsourcing. I know in my heart that it was a language problem that caused this disaster....
IM trying to look on the bright side, at least the beast is running....My mentor and friend Kathy Hammes at the Small Business Development Network, told me to cheer up that she loses everything all the time and frankly she has come to see it as "a bit of spring cleaning for her hard drive." I have learned that once burned shame on them twice burned shame on me. I will do something about backing up the store computer, and will always back up the inventory on this one. I doubt that this HD will ever see the volume of stuff on it that it once had.
Wanted to smack Kathy for that one, but I love her dearly and so just stuck my tongue out.
