  1. I've seen several videos lately where the student isn't wearing an altimeter and was just wondering how common this was and the reasoning. Thanks "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."
  2. Thanks. I haven't plugged in a new drive. I was just saying that I think my hard drive may be fried and I was just in the process of ordering a back-up drive in case this happened.

  3. I just tried starting it in safe mode and I get a flashing folder with a question mark on it... "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."
  4. And I had just ordered a external hard drive to back stuff up :( When I turn it on I just get the gray screen and it doesn't progress from there. I'm guessing bad hard drive. So I put the start up disc in and it wants to re-install leopard but I don't want to risk losing the data on the hard drive if I can salvage it. Any suggestions???

  5. A lot of these are saying "built in electric pump". Does that mean it needs to be plugged in the entire time or can you unplug it after you pump it up? Thanks for the help guys.

  6. I'm getting ready to buy an air mattress to sleep on at the DZ instead of the couch. Anyone have any good recommendations?

  18. I recently received an email and I was wondering how I could "track" it down? I have the email address, but don't know who it belongs to. Is there a way I can find the IP address and then figure out where that IP address is located at? Any help would be appreciated. It was sent to my gmail account if that matters.
