Two issues:
1. I purchased a Siemens-Fujitsu personal computer in
Switzerland in 1999, and it worked well until
mid-2004, when it failed. My local repair shop ("Dr.
Floppy", whom I recommend if you ever need help in
Auckland, New Zealand) found that the PC had TWO
cooling fans, so when one failed you didn't notice due
to the noise from the other fan until the boards
around the failed fan were fried. See "The Law of
Unintended Consequences". So I lost all data at home
in folders begining with the letters N-Z (actually
there's a reasonable explanation for this unique
outcome, but not now).
2. Among the lost data was a folder referencing an
annual publication of an international survey of the
percent of companies using named business theories and
concepts (it's pretty low, around 20%). The company is
a consulting company in, I believe, Canada. I have it
on my office PC BUT I WANT IT NOW! If anyone knows
what I'm talking about, please send me the company
name.
Regards,
Romie
