<p class=MsoNormal>Hey folks -<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I *really* *really* want you to buy a Time Capsule or start
using Time Machine. And I can get you a discount (15% off!). No,
Apple doesn't need the money. No, I don't get a cut or even work on the Time
Capsule team.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I ask you to do this because I care about you. And
specifically, because I know the horrors of data loss. Think of your
iTunes library, or your iPhoto pictures or all those things you've written or
all those emails that you want to save. Some day your hard drive will
die. Or you'll drop your Mac. Or something else bad will happen.
And on that day you will either say:<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>a) I'm glad 'Deep made me buy a Time Capsule.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>b) F$&^k, I wish I listened to 'Deep and
bought a Time Capsule.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>So what am I talking about?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>- The new MacOS X Leopard has a feature called Time Machine.
It is really cool "you never have to think about it after you turn
it on" back up service that will automatically save your work, hourly,
daily, and monthly. It also makes it super easy to retrieve things from
the past and even kinda FUN to do so. All Time Machine needs to silently
and constantly save-your-ass is an external hard drive (they're pretty cheap*
these days) just plug it in to your Mac & turn on Time Machine & point it
at the drive. Done. Ass saved.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>- If you use a laptop, like most of us, things get slightly
more complicated because though you could use Time Machine and just remember to
plug in a hard drive periodically so Time Machine could do it's thing, I know
you won't. I know I won't. That is where Time Capsule comes in.
Time Capsule is a new Apple WiFi (Airport) Base Station with a Big Hard
Drive built in. It is designed to be used with Time Machine, but you
never have to plug it in to your Mac. It will just
work quietly in the background and wirelessly be saving your ass once
an hour all the time. It is also a nice WiFi base station - so you
can replace your older WiFi base station with the latest tech and better range
all in one fell swoop. And, if you are a multiple Mac household, it will
back up all your Macs - nice. Also the quality of the hard drive in a
Time Capsule will probably make it much less prone to HD failure than a lot of
drives that you would buy for yourself.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I can get you Leopard for 15% and a Time Capsule for 15%
off. It is worth it. trust me.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I really really hope some of you take me up on this. I
honestly think this is important. Most of us have so much stuff that
means so much to us on our computers. This is the best way to guard against
the data loss that is inevitably coming. I hate to be a fear-monger. But
hard drive loss/failure is honestly inevitable. I
can't guarantee that you won't ever lose something from your
computer, but with Time Machine / Time Capsule your risks are seriously
reduced.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>* Hard drive are cheap in the literal sense - you can find
them as low as $125 for 500 GB, but compared to the value of your data they are
INSANELY cheap.<o:p></o:p></p>
