| Cheri703 | canthus13: this is incredibly random, but for some reason it popped into my head.... | 05:14 |
|---|---|---|
| Cheri703 | remember how you mentioned the server that vanished? and I mentioned pc speakers | 05:14 |
| Cheri703 | wouldn't it be possible to write something that IF the network connection went down, it would beep? so if one had a nic that died, it'd beep to let you know...or something... | 05:15 |
| canthus13 | Cheri703: Shouldn't be too difficult. | 05:15 |
| Cheri703 | like I said, random, but was just a thought | 05:16 |
| Cheri703 | how much would you charge someone to recover data from floppy disks? | 05:17 |
| Cheri703 | I'm leaning toward $10 flat fee, and like $1-2 / disk, or somewhere around there | 05:18 |
| canthus13 | Cheri703: A lot. I'd have to buy a floppy drive. | 05:20 |
| Cheri703 | well, if you had one... | 05:20 |
| canthus13 | I dunno. I hate floppies. I'd prolly charge more. | 05:21 |
| Cheri703 | heh, well, these people have a whole pile of them, and I don't know that it's worth like $100 for the project to them, so some money is better than no money! | 05:21 |
| Cheri703 | Perhaps $20+per disk costs | 05:21 |
| Cheri703 | dunno, I'll think about it | 05:21 |
| Cheri703 | I'm going to be very out of it, very soon, just ate some cinnamon rolls slathered in icing....sugar coma is on its way | 05:26 |
