Prepare for winrot!

Friday, February 24, 2006

Well luggable is showing signs of winrot. I’ll have to look if there is a formal definition of it, but any windoze user is aware of the phenomina. The system just gets slower. Slower to boot, slower to run, and slower to shut down. The only real solution is a complete wipe of the hard drive, reinstall the pig from scratch or distribution media, reinstall all your software, then reload all your data, and then scramble for what you have missed. Arghhh! I guess I’ll just have to start to prep for the inevitable. Sometimes I think just buying a new machine is easier!
