<p>First of all, I have to thank <a href="http://www.logodesignlove.com/">LOGODESIGNLOVE</a> for the post regarding this significant issue.</p>
<p>I could not in good faith recommend purchasing a logo from <a href="http://www.istockphoto.com">istockphoto.com</a> when they actually start offering them.  They are leaving it to the designer to ensure that they are not infringing on any copyright or trademark.</p>
<p>And quite frankly I cannot envision the designer taking the time to do the research.  <a href="http://www.davidairey.com/logo-trademarking-tips-legal-perspective/">It&#8217;s a lot of work.</a>  And the payment to the designer would never be sufficient in the event they were sued for infringement.&#8230;</p>]]></description>

<p>Let&#8217;s just say I was very lucky that the computer technician was able to breathe enough life into the desktop (the hard drive was dying) and I was able to backup everything, and transfer to a new laptop.</p>
<p>There are several online backup services available.  If you don&#8217;t wish to use one (maybe you have dial-up) then there are portable hard drives that are reasonably priced.  I have one that is 300GB and I will be backing that up to DVD.&#8230;</p>]]></description>
