Huh?
Huh?
Guessing I was not clear. On a PC operating Windows XP, if your system crashes, you get what is referred to as the "blue screen of death." You computer locks up and you have to reboot (restart it).
However, in most instances you do not lose your work (letters in word, art in Photoshop, things you were working on when it crashed). Once the system is restart, Windows XP asks you if you want to recover the data that was not saved when the crash occured.
In ohter words, that long letter you were nearly done with is not lost just because the system locked up.
Not so with a Mac Computer, as I briefly stated in my earlier post. When a Mac crashes, you lose all work. Thus my comment "At least that Blue Screen of Death will let you recover your data that you were working on before it crashed."
Hope that clarifies it. If not, let me know and I will have another shot at it.
