Keeping up to date with technology / backing shit up

vamos [Edit] [Delete] 11:40, 22 February '13

Does it stress you out?

It does me.

My iPhone and iMac have both pretty much died in the past week and are getting to the point where I need to upgrade them.

But I use them so passingly that I resent paying £500 / 1200 for new models. So I looked into getting one that's 2 years old and they're half the price, but you sorta know it's just a stop gap solution. Likewise switching to HTC / PC has it's own issues.

Backing up is stressful too. Got stuff all over the shop, all my iTunes on a creaking external HD and finding now that design files on DVDs I burned 5 years ago now won't open. I've a mate who swears by Cloud and backs all his stuff up on there, which makes sense, but not sure I trust it just yet.

Does this bother anybody else? It didn't ought to and given that I've lost plenty of files before and it's really no bother, I don't know why I care. BUT IT FUCKING DOES MY HEAD IN.
