[Coco] [Color Computer] Vintageworld where are you

[Jim Cox]

Basil:

If you are talking about Chris Spry, I too am wondering, 
but I don't have an answer for you.  I hope he's OK.

As for Wester Digital drives, I have to agree.  I have 
been salvaging some computers, and most of them that have 
had hard drive trouble, had Wester Drive drives.

I myself just recently recovered from having a IBM 
Deskstor (AKA Death Stor) start to go out on me.  I was 
lucky that I was able to move the data off in time.

As an aside to all this, for all of you who are using 
Firefox and/or Thunderbird, there is a wonderful tool 
called Mozbackup http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ that 
allows you to back up or restore your Firefox/Thunderbird 
profiles.  Several caveats are, the version of FF or TB 
that you restore to MUST be the same as you backed up 
from, and you should always compact your email before 
backing up TB.

Hopes this helps some of you out there.
