Re: [ccp4bb] OT: Has anyone experienced problems with Apple laptop battery expansion?

[Laura Spagnolo]

Dear Bill,

Yes, the same happened a year ago or so to me, with a 17 inch MacBookPro bought 
in 2008.
The Apple store in Glasgow replaced it for free within roughly one week, and 
the laptop works well. 

I agree that this is really dangerous, I wonder if it could also cause the leak 
of material from inside (mine exposed some really ugly brown stuff).

 Hi folks:
 
 I'm trying to get a sense for how frequently this sort of thing occurs:

 That was a macbook air that served me well for four years, but then 
 self-destructed. (I took it to the Apple store.  They generously offered to 
 repair it for $800 or to sell me a new one, and suggested this was normal if 
 you leave the power cord attached after the battery charges, even while 
 giving a lecture or seminar.)  It strikes me as a bit dangerous.

Re: [ccp4bb] archival memory?

  I have data from Brian Matthews' lab going back to the mid-1970's
 and those data started life on 7-track mag tapes.  I've moved them
 from there to 9-track 1600 bpi tapes, to 9-track 6250 bpi tapes, to
 just about every density of Exabyte tape, to DVD, and most recently
 to external magnetic hard drives (each with USB, Firewire, and eSATA
 interfaces).  The hard drives are about five years old and so far
 are holding up.  Last time I checked I could still read the 10 year
 old DVD's.  I'm having real trouble reading Exabyte tapes.
 
  Write your data to some medium that you expect to last for at least
 five years but anticipate that you will then have to move them to
 something else.
 
  Instead of spending time working on the 100 year solution you should
 spend your time annotating your data so that someone other than you
 can figure out what it is.  Lack of annotation and editing is the
 biggest problem with old data.
