I think I have bad computer-buying karma.

This entry will be a bit bitchy. )

LOL...I'm just now noticing your mood...

Sorry to hear that getting a new hard drive has been such a pain in the ass. Hope your rebate goes through... :-/ And that sucks you lost money...

Meh, you live and you learn. I just... REALLY have bad luck at buying things for myself. Still no word back from the rebate people :|

... the hard drive install was a nightmare, ending up with me spending hours trying to recover 80 gigs of data I happened to "lose". All was recovered, though, I think... it's hard to tell. :|

On the plus side, it's a /lot/ quieter than the drive it's replacing, should be faster, and that will allow me to RMA the old drive (it has bad sectors and makes occasional "buzzsaw" grinding noises!).
