Well, I just had a wonderful experience with the desktop, where I “lost” just about everything I had on it. Good thing: I had most of the data on a different drive. So now I’m re-installing the operating system, (and this time I’m putting the home directory on the 1/2 Tb drive) and will have to try to recover everything else that I’ve got to put back on there. I’m not too sure that some of this isn’t being caused by hardware. I’ve noticed that I’m seeing a lot of what I can only really describe as “pixel rot” where black and dark colors seems to fade out to random colored bits on the screen. Maybe it’s just time to open the case and vacuum out the computer again. We’ll see how this one turns out.
