        Why oh why does our Exchange server choose holidays to die? Last time it was Easter. Today I was 1 hour through watching The Return of the King for a second time when I noticed the light on my phone come on. I exited the cinema and discovered that my intuition was correct - the caller had been my boss hoping for help. Needless to say no more movie watching for me, and an afternoon of trying to coax the HDD back to life :sigh:. Worse still, we are still using Arcserve for our backups. What a pig to set up for Exchange, but totally necessary to restore our backups. It's probably too much to hope that another day of work (tomorrow) will free me up to enjoy the rest of the holiday this week. :((

                Morality: always turn off cellphones in theaters :) A pseudo-advice: if you can't fix it, kick it: if it doesn't work, at least it will help to calm down.

That's why I was so reluctant to have a cell phone :rolleyes: A wired phone line with an answer machine fitted my needs, the cost of communication to friends' cellular phones from such a line was indeed the reason to incite me to use GSM.
