1. We install Se4 on it.
2. We install Se4 Periphernalia on it.
3. We install anything else that has to do with Se4 on it.
4. We use Se4 every space moment we have.
5. We save, and open, and save, open, and save .txt files that make up Se4 data.
6. Almost all of us have had our HDs for a long time.
7. It's just bad luck

Yeah, I guess so. We only hear about the disasters, of course.
I've already had my bad ones, so I back up all manner of things to CD.
Walked into the room one day and thought: Oh I hope that terrible grinding sound is a fan that went out.
No one learns to back up without the pain of loss and gut wrenching might-haves. Well, almost no one. Can't compete with a real paranoid. |

Re: Yet another victim.
This is part of the reason why I release every minor change to Adamant Mod.  |

This should not matter as all computers run on smoke.
In fact if you ever see the smoke escape from your computer you know it is broken.

Imagemodserver is gone, but executron and C&R have mirrors.
I do have the committee game installed on a CD-RW, so it still exists.

Yeah, the rest of the computer is mirrors, but they are pretty solid.
