It's too late. You're doomed. Grab a few beers. Re-format time!


Nah, jk. I've done that many times with no ill effect, although there may be somebody that speaks up here that has. What SW/updates?

I always grab every update I can for everything before rebooting. I'm still in the mind set of my older machines that took for ever to reboot. It isn't that big of a deal now that my machine can reboot in under 30seconds but I still do it :)
