My MacBook Pro died on Friday, June 22nd, 2007. At 6:04 pm, as I rushed to my French final, I realized that I had left her on top of my friend’s car. He had peeled off moments before. She was run over by his back tire, as well as both right tires of another vehicle. The funeral will be Wednesday at 4pm.
All is well that ends well, I suppose. I bought a new one today. Putting all my crap back on is…frustrating to say the least. Here’s where my opinion comes in. So Mozy is what I have used to do my backup. Um, why do I have to wait for a “Web Restore build confirmation email” to get my files? Why does Mozy have to “find” my shit?? I would really like to have all my bookmarks back in order, my calendars uploaded (this is minor, I also have them on my iPod), et cetera. I’m frustrated at how this is a less-than-ideal scenario for a person who is less-than-patient. I’m going to try to find a new backup system, and I’ll report back on whether it also annoys the crap out of me.
