I kind of predicted this would happen so I'm trying to nip this in the bud before it's terminal.
Computers with me seem to somehow know when a project is ending and die as the result. This happened at last just before Forge of Hate was finished. Now it's happening with Iron and Steel. My laptop has some strange blackout matter which happens at random and causes me to lose all my work in progress when it happens. It's now happened four times in the last year. Three of them fairly recent. Now I don't think I can get through a page before it happens. It's something to do with the Bios of the machine and sadly the fix direct from Dell won't work.
I've ordered a replacement laptop from eBay which should make it to me by the dawn of next month. Backups of all written project files are being stored online. The Surface can be used in a pinch but in the mean time lets hope this computer doesn't die before or shortly after Oct. 3rd.

Thanks & same, and you wouldn't believe how grateful I am the current computer didn't have a black out while I was working on page 242. ( It happened with pages 240, 241, 204, and 127. )
