/2011/2002 Archived Entry: "The computer. Again."

I got the boot discs (or is it disks? I can never remember which is English and which is American.) yesterday. So, I am very happy to report that the computer is now working (just about) as advertised once again. The only problem I have now is in trying to get the archived mail from the cd-rom back into Outlook. Outlook doesn't seem to like the file, no matter what I do with it. I don't suppose it's the end of the world if I can't get it back, but it's a bit of a pain. There are some emails of which I'd like to have a copy, and some I hadn't read. Mainly it's the copies of all the registration information that I need. I've emailed Microsoft to see if they can suggest a solution. Any suggestions from the audience gladly appreciated.
When I got back online yesterday, I had something like 125 emails waiting for me. And, of those 125, there were a grand total of 3 that were actually something I wanted to read. The rest were mailing list stuff, that I'll get round to reading at some point. I'm ever so popular! I really need to write emails to more people...

I've got another meeting today, so I'm all togged up in my suit today. Which is nice. I'm not wearing my tie yet, cos I hate it.
