Which brings me to our next subject of this blog
For Christmas one of my gifts was a new Terabyte hard drive. OVERPOWERING JOY!
I is a giant step up from the current one I have ( 160 gigs ). But... I'm going to need to buy a new operating system, reason: because 1. the current XP disk i have is ... gone? cant find it. 2. i bought the UPGRADE for vista. so all that does it upgrade from xp.
so my question here is the ultimate one... buy XP... or buy Vista....?
( either that or is there a way to transfer data from one hard drive to the other? Like take everything off of this one and put it on the other one ?
I'm still learning a few hardware basics )
Half-life 2 and Hard-Drives
First off Half-life 2 episode 1 keeps on getting better and better, Epicness in a CD I tell you! This game has some... intriguing "almost" horrifying parts. Dark corners and zombies make it a little horrific. Tis a little challenging for me to play though, because I had to downgrade my graphics card. oh well. Getting a whole new system upgrade soon anyway.Which brings me to our next subject of this blog

I despise Vista. I'm not totally sure why, but I can do all my usual stuff in XP and Vista doesn't give me anything new that's very useful, so why switch?
I have transferred the entire contents of a drive to another (OS and all) back when I was in college. I think I did it from dos? I can't really remember, but what I do remember is that it killed my Deathstar IBM drive (I knew it was gonna die). After that, I think things were good with the new drive.
And with regards to episode 1, one day I will play it. One day...
