Resurrection ?

Resurrection for zirakzigil, my laptop. After a hurried flight down to Madras due to the untimely demise of my grandpa ( a great man) who is to some extent responsible for me being the kind of hu"man" that I am , I discovered that I had suffered another bereavement, that of my laptop hard drive being slowly eaten up by bad blocks . Other than a couple of things being lost, nothing much since most of it was backed up in office spent the whole of Friday in resurrecting my laptop installing ubuntu and possibly setting up a mirroring system with another usb hdd that I acquired in the past. Also in this I must give due credit to IBM who got me a new hard disk in no time whatsoever.
