Recovery For Idiots

I’ve just invented a new policy for all those important disks that you get with cameras and computers which become so important when you subsequently try to sell your old stuff on ebay.

As soon as I get them I’m going to throw them in the bin.

I’ve just spent a chunk of the day looking for a set of mysteriously vanished drivers and they would seem to be completely lost. If I’d chucked them away as soon as I got them, rather than put them “somewhere safe”, I’d be in the same position as I am now, but at least I’d have not wasted all the time getting here.
