Fyron how are you holding out... With the PBW down... I figure you have an extra 2 to 3 hours of time every day

I moved to college today, so I haven't really noticed.

Also, any update on the problem? Just curious... Never seen you guys have an outage this long so I'm guessing it's a doozy...

You know actually I have been pricing those the Last couple of days. What were you looking to get for it? A good backup regimen would have made this a little less painful. It's on the priority list to get taken care of once we are back up and running.

We hope to have it back up by Monday. Can't be certain. Something in the code got fouled up and we are scrambling trying to fix it.

Geo, I have a spare iomegazip 100Mo here.
If you want it for PBW, I can send it by postmail. If you are interested, send me an email with your post adress at arthur.middleton@tetragone.fr
Got a few cartriges with it as well.

All that is not used anymore since I make backups on RW cdroms.

ooops forgot to tell : it's an USB device.

LAST NEW : I also have a cd-writer. The problem we had with it is that cd-rom written with it could only be read from this device. So for our business it became useless. But we never had these problems with RW-cdrom, which could be read from any device. Should you need it it is yours as well.

I will donate it to the cause. Been meaning to send some $ in via paypal once I get caught up on things (7 months unemployed! - started back to work 9/3) but I can do that much sooner in lieu of cash if you'd like it.

I only have one tape for it, but there's nothing wrong with it. It just doesn't work with Arkeia unfortunately.

E-mail me direct an address and I'll ship it out when I get a chance to bring that svr down - might be a couple of weeks though.

That's fine, both of you. We have to do something, but we haven't decided what format to use for backups yet. We will let you know. Thank you both for your generous offers.
