Last week, I was using my own computer to demonstrate to a client how they can use the Windows 2000 bootable CD to delete a partition on their hard drive. I managed to delete my own partition that contains all of my personal and business files! Skip diggity!

Thankfully, the bootable utlity that comes with Partiton Magic allowed me to restore the partition. All of my data was intact, although I had to reinstall Windows because I couldn't seem to edit the boot.ini file to find my Windows folder, which lives on my second partition. Grrr. So, I've spent the past while getting my system back up to speed: software and drivers installed, settings reestablished, etc. Another learning experience perhaps, but that is partially the reason why I haven't been posting to this site in over a week.

I'm back.
