What do you do when your laptop fails and WILL NOT run AT ALL 5 minutes before your set? (assume you have exausted all troubleshooting with no luck)
I reach for records or cds.

I haven't run into that problem since my Toshiba died on me. But I usually carry cd's in my dj bag and have a cd folder in my car just in case its a really bad crash and rebooting doesnt help. Also I carry a firewire HD in my bag with a mirror image of my internal HD and reboot off of it and rock the house!
I didn't think of that, JesC. Pretty good idea.
Anyway, I reach for my backup CDs, which are in desperate need of being updated.
I hate playing on cd's, reason being is most place that I play have this neat little mix station to play off of
so if my lappy crashes I would go home and cry!
haha yeah, the new place we're moving to has something just as bad, and I gotta plug into an open channel. I'm praying my machine keeps treating me as well as it has been
My laptop NEVER fails.

Try me. I'm a laptop technician by trade. I've never fallen into a situation I couldn't dig myself out of. It's like going on tour with the band. Sure our keyboard might "fail" but we'd fix it before the next show. A guitarist's strings break? but they can sure as hell re-string them.
