Well its that time in a Operating System’s life cycle. The dreaded format and reinstall of Windows. I have been fearing this for a couple of months. Just like vehicles, your Operating System gets sluggish after a while and needs a refresher.
I’ve had Windows XP installed for 4+ years and now windows starts very slowly and just recently started randomly giving me BSOD and rebooting.The fun part of backing up all my important documents, media, software,etc. onto an external drive and praying that I got everything is the next step. This is sort of good in a way because i get to sift through all of crap and delete what I really don’t need or haven’t used in a long time. It’s spring cleaning for the computer.
This makes me think about the push to Cloud Computing or Client Server computing and wonder if that is the way to go.
