PBW down

PBW Down...

There is an unbearable emptiness in my soul. I shall sit here staring blankly into the empty vacuum of my laptop.

By the way my $20 is out the door today, out of nothing but guilt for not having acted sooner. Perhaps if we have all acted in time, we could have had the exterminators on scene to prevent this travesty.

This failure is not for lack of money. It's just one of those things that happens sometimes. We are working to get it resolved.

Geo-

I know... hey I was just fooling around a bit.

Regardless; I really have sent the donation and (quit procrastinating about it). The PBW team is the tops and deserves it.

Speedy recovery,
Stoney

George, I would like to sent you 20 grams of peanuts. Errr..no, acorns? Oh, you know what I mean!

In a previous thread (PBW needs you!), I vaguely remember you giving the payee for the cheque as "Mr. George Perley" and your address. Let's see if I can remember...

Mr. George Perley
20 Acorn Grove
Acornville, ND
United States of Acorn

No, that doesn't seem right...

Mr. George Perley
30 Squirrel Runway
Squirrelville, ND
United Squirrels of America.

No, that also doesn't seem right....

George, why don't you give us your address, so that us slackards will have no excuse for not sending you a cheque if we do not like paypal.

Hey guys, George is not asking for much! $5.00, if we can spare it (see "PBW needs you!"). For those who have not read it, I'll bump the thread to the top of the list.

Fyron how are you holding out... With the PBW down... I figure you have an extra 2 to 3 hours of time every day

Geo _ I am gonna have a spare HP Colorado 20 GB Tape Drive fairly soon - do you happen to need one for PBW?

Also, any update on the problem? Just curious... Never seen you guys have an outage this long so I'm guessing it's a doozy...

I moved to college today, so I haven't really noticed.

You know actually I have been pricing those the Last couple of days. What were you looking to get for it? A good backup regimen would have made this a little less painful. It's on the priority list to get taken care of once we are back up and running.

We hope to have it back up by Monday. Can't be certain. Something in the code got fouled up and we are scrambling trying to fix it.

Geo, I have a spare iomegazip 100Mo here.
If you want it for PBW, I can send it by postmail. If you are interested, send me an email with your post adress at [email protected]
Got a few cartriges with it as well.

All that is not used anymore since I make backups on RW cdroms.

ooops forgot to tell : it's an USB device.

LAST NEW : I also have a cd-writer. The problem we had with it is that cd-rom written with it could only be read from this device. So for our business it became useless. But we never had these problems with RW-cdrom, which could be read from any device. Should you need it it is yours as well.
