After making some changes to global settings in Joomla, all the links broke. The site was unusable, and only now have I figured out why.

 As it turns out, certain things happen when you enable "Search Engine Friendly" links in the global configuration. I solved the problem by moving htaccess.txt to .htaccess and enabling apache mod_rewrite in the global config.

 Now I have to fix some of the linking changes I made while I was troubleshooting.

 
Broken Acer? PDF Print E-mail

So last week somebody asked me for computer help. It turns out he managed to hose his Vista install on an Acer. The Micro Center told him it looked like a bad hard drive, and to send it back to Acer. When I looked at it, the drive seemed fine, and I was able to backup all of his data. However I did not have a vista disc or license, and Acer did not provide one with the laptop. So he has to send it in anyway.

 I feel bad for him.
