10.4.8 Backup update

I firstly thought it was a fluke last night, or maybe that I just hadn't heard the CD spin up.

Then tonight midnight rolled around and Apple's Backup utility starts to bounce happily in the dock preparing for lift off and a quick file copy to my .mac iDisk of my "Personal Files and Settings" set to run nightly at 0030.



It was then it struck me a second time, no CD noise. It hadn't done the power on shuffle it usually performs when backup gets involved.

I don't really mind either way, I did like that noise though. Like a little reminder, my own personal metronome. One could argue there is a lower power draw then by not running those motors. Maybe this is a small part of el Jobso's master plan to placate greenpeace.

This whole CD drive noise probably interested me far too much, given I'm sat up in bed blogging about the lack of a noise from my laptop. Speaking of noises from my laptop, those people on the Apple discussion forums that claim 10.4.8 removed the his from the laptop - liars everyone of them. ;-)

night all
