I had a drive fall over on about 2002, and I was still using tape. The reinstall could not find anything on the tapes. It was at that point I went to town and bought 2 more 260Gb drives and dedicated one to amanda and virtual tapes, and the other for the next linux install, whenever I needed to do so. From 2002 to now that means the drives are now a terrabyte or 2, but the procedure is the same. And with my wrappers around amanda, I have not lost a single byte I didn't throw away as old tech during a new install copy over from the old drive. This is an argument ( t-bird vs kmail ) that has no clear winner. But I would point out that t-bird is on borrowed time and may never see another release with mozilla actively looking for a buyer or a shutdown of development on it. OTOH, the fork of kde, known as tde or trinity, at about the kde 3.5 time frame, isn't actively growing new features, but has had hundreds of long standing bugs fixed that kde didn't consider a priority in their quest to make kde work like windows. So this "frozen" version is pretty dead stable now, and when the code base is in good enough shape that adding new features is once again feasible, it will be done. This will occur in the r14 development branch which I am running here. I have no idea what the kde5 stuff looks like, don't really care since I was tired of bleeding to death by all the stuff that still didn't work when kfe-4 was eol'd a 5 was announced. You could say in a way that I voted with my wallet, but its as empty as ever. Regards to MC Carson.
