Just A Reminder: Save Often
Submitted by dshafer on January 4, 2008 - 10:30am.
Just a quick reminder for some of my readers and friends who live or work in one of the several parts of the country experiencing stormy weather today, including my home base of Monterey to save often. I mean really often. Particularly when it's been a while since the last storm, power outages are fairly common. This morning, we have had three very brief outages, usually a harbinger of a day of unreliable power.
This is one of the main reasons I'm reluctant to part with my PowerBook; it keeps running for quite a while during such outages. My desktop machine goes down immediately. I'm going to buy a small UPS for it today.
I'm thankful for the rain, not so much for the damaging winds!
Not Terrible Here Yet
Jeff,
We're getting high winds and lots of steady rain. We've had about 20 or so power flickers this morning but so far no extended outage.
I'm going to get two UPSes, one for the network stuff and one for my computer. The equipment is in separate rooms.
Any suggestions for a particular type or storage capacity?
