01/09/2007: "More Computer Issues"

This really hasn't been my month for elecronics. If I didn't laugh about the various issues that I've had around here, I'd seriously cry. [The most recent diaster involved vomit (not mine) and a keyboard - you really don't want to know.] To that affect, Helio submissions are still down, but are expected to resume sometime on Saturday. I'll head into town, to the college to make use of their internet connection to upload all of the changes and corrections. Hopefully, my laptop will cooperate on that issue.

For those that are curious, I use a five year old laptop computer that's missing the 1 key and doesn't have hi-speed USB ports (and can't use cards to fix that, because the slot doesn't work), a scavenged keyboard, a wireless USB mouse, my lovely new external hard drive (thank you!) and my old external hard drive (in a shiny new case), in conjuction with my prehistoric 26-28.8 Kbps dial-up internet connection to make all of this possible.

I hope everyone had a happy holiday and is enjoying their new year. I am looking forward to all of the submissions that I hope will come in this weekend.

There are changes in the works for the structure of the archive, and I will keep you guys up to date as I impliment them. I am still looking for users familiar with eFiction who would like to volunteer to help out. In the last two months, there have been zero volunteers.
