This past weekend, I had the honor of serving as co-MC for my friends' commissioning ceremony. Going from Senior Chief Petty Officer (E-8) to Ensign (O-1) brings immediate value to the Wardroom, the Mess, and the deckplate alike. The finest Officers I’ve known are Mustangs!

I am something of a data recovery expert....even vacuumed the carpet and washed my hands before cracking this bad boy open (expert clean room protocol).

Here at RToD we take recovering your vintage data seriously.

My kids have been playing the crap out of this iMac. Tonight they are enjoying I Spy Spooky Mansion. I can’t even get enough time to finish setting everything up. Once it’s the way I envision I WILL make a video on this. It’s great to see older tech still with a purpose.
