Quick Note

Just a quick note here. Sorry for the delay between posts but had a few issues arise over the past 6 weeks between the holidays, my DSL router dying on me and my computer crapping out. One bit of advice if you build your own computers: RTFM! Know the difference between RAID 1 and RAID 10. I didn't read enough, and due to a hard drive failure I lost ALL of my data, including brew sessions and recipes. I should know better than to not back things up in multiple places.

Having learned my lesson, I've now converted my 7-year old computer to a Linux box and am running Windows XP and 7 using Virtual Box, and reloaded XP on the beast, code name: Dirk. I'm also working on writing a backup script once I get Samba installed on the Linux box.

Oh, and I think I've got an infected batch of beer on top of everything else.
