I happily reached for my laptop this morning like I do every morning.  A quick email check and peek at Sift with some coffee is how I begin most days.

 But not this morning...   It says it cannot find windows.  I look for my emergency boot disk... Oh, thats right, I didn't make one.  My last computer had an emergency partition thing so I thought all computers did that now.  idiot.

Other than losing some pictures, I'm hoping this means I'm getting a new one.   I will take it to someone to try and save the pictures. 

So do any of our coolest geek savviest sifters here have a suggestion on what to buy if I have to?
