Hopefully the HD is safe.

And I hope this isn't a ploy to get out of AUK after losing all those ships to my forces.
The HP is running now, but it is making some odd noises. I used a fan to blow air into the open side of both PC's. The AMD I have not fired up yet.

I will back up my data on my Portable, just in case. At any expense, my new office is the folding counter in the hall way. Very uncomfortable to sit at and type.

The inside of both PC's had water at the bottom of the case. The HP had water on the board. The AMD had water on the all of the drives dripping down.

I am just a very lucky man today. Of course the roof leaking, only six months after having it replaced, is a PITA. But the contractor lives behind us and thinks it was caused by pine needles working there way under a bridge section. He came right over, skipped his dinner to do it too. And cleaned them. The dripping has stopped, but the rain has not, so this might be a good sign.

At any point the computer is noticeably louder.

I am going to play my PBW turns and run the STM 1 turn off while the getting is good.
