..."We are experiencing technical difficulties."
Or some such thing -- first the laptop got weird, and then early on Monday my 1TB backup drive (which has about 700GB of backup and about 270GB of assorted files I wanted "live" but did not want to lose) decided to call it quits. Oh, it works (there are those annoying messages telling me my Mac can't mount the disk I "inserted" from time to time), and it knows exactly how much free space it has left, but it resolutely refuses to show me ANY of my files.
Of course, the basic-level disk utility can't do anything except tell me I need to back up my files and reformat the disk.
Duh.
Exactly what I'd like to do, but that "back up your files" part... well, that's what the meshuggineh thing was supposed to be for in the first place.
I'll be back "on the air" as soon as I'm sure there's nothing evil lurking inside my laptop.
<sigh>
Annoying. Damned annoying.
