Yesterday I lost my hard drive, which had windows xp on it. While playing game, win XP crashed and I had to press reset button.
Since then the win xp won’t let me in, so I tried to recover from the cd . It seemed okay. However, when win xp’s tour screen came up, there were multiple error messages, which stated “couldn’t find this file or couldn’t save that file. I figured hard drive was totally dead. Luckily I had backup of all the data from C drive and had 3 different hard disc for its own purpose. One for the system, another for application, and the other for music, picture, and pure data.

I bought Western Digital’s 120 GB from bestbuy ’cause I had to set up a system quick. I paid $110 but there is $50 buck mail-in rebate~ Yeah. By the way somehow newegg.com wasn’t available yesterday at all.

I’ve finally linked to *links page*. When you get to the page and view the source, you will see very simply javascript only. That’s because the page is rendered from MSXML DOM object using xml and xslt combination. I was going to do that on the server, but my web hosting company doesn’t provide xslt module on PHP yet and probably won’t install it ever. I could use xml object instead, but I’d rather want to use xslt template.

I’ve been attending technical writing course online and reading so many posts that were written by many different people. What impresses me in learning online is a chance to get to see a subject from broad range of angle. People ranging 20 some to 60 are there discussing *ONE SUBJECT* which could be very hard to do in traditional school.
