i've had my new WD hard drive freeze up twice.. this winter.. and that was back when it was in the single digits.. I'm sure it will happen again ..

so we do not want fluid berings correct?

We should start to plan on another meet, i.e. a month in advance due to everyone's diferent calender.

Some FDB's work, some don't. I bought a drive about a year +couple months ago (with FDB) and it's been working fine through this below zero stuff.
Granted, I have a heated garage, but I do park it outside all day (in the sun...)

All harddrives will die. And at the most inopportune moments. That is guaranteed.
If you're concerned, run to a used comp store and buy an older (non-fdb) drive.

Planning a meet for January? It had better be heated....
And when do we get to see the hearse-puter?

Sweet... I'm at 999! I think I'll let it stay this way for a while. Time to waste my time in OT!

HDD's still workin. Not much considering that it's been 32+ lately....
And I've eclipsed the 1grand mark. Hurrah.

Minneasota reps:

I have a small soldering job, anyone up for it?.....I have a TM-701L with a short in it. I'm sure someone with the skill can get the job done in about 20 mins.

I would love a Limo, a nice 96 caddy .. take it on trips with the kids.. dress up nice and take the kids to school .. oh how nice it would be..

Used to work with a guy (in highskool) who had a herse... Dude had that Goth thing down down pretty well, so he kinda fit the bill.

Sucks about Camp Nsoopy, eh?

In a vain attempt to make this post useful, anyone know where I could get my hands on a center dash panel for an '01 Cherokee? I'm thinking about (as you have suggested) molding my Xenarc into the dash. I just don't want to screw up its resale value, especially considering that Cherokee parts are going to be hard to come by in a few years. I've tried Car-Part and Johns...
