“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 9 – Disk Warrior

This contest is closed. Congrats to faithful Macenstein reader Ned!

On the Ninth Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) Your very own copy of DiskWarrior 4 by Alsoft!

diskwarrior 4 by alsoft

Yes, the mighty DiskWarrior 4, the safest, most technologically advanced, most powerful utility to eliminate directory damage available for any computer, and, the only product, hardware or software, that has ever earned the highly sought after 10 out of 10 rating from Macenstein. Why? Because it rescued my entire 60 GB music collection when I had a drive go kablooey on me and other disk repair utilities failed.

The key to DiskWarrior’s success is that it is not a disk repair program in the conventional sense. Instead of patching the original directory, it uses a patent-pending technology to quickly build a new replacement directory using data recovered from the original directory, thereby recovering files, folders and documents that you thought were lost and that no other program could recover.

Those of you who have had disk trouble and who have written to me in desperation know DiskWarrior is my go-to answer, so if you do not own it already, and don’t win it here, go buy a copy. You’ll be glad you did.

To enter: Since DiskWarrior is the weapon of choice when fighting damaged disks, leave us a comment with the coolest imaginary weapon in TV/Film/videogame history. It could be the Death Star from Star Wars, The Sword of Omens from Thundercats, or Sticky Grenades from Halo 3 (but we all know it is the Glave from the movie Krull). Winners will be picked randomly 7 days later and notified (kind of like in The Ring, only with less killing… we hope). Open to all readers world wide. Good luck, and thanks for reading Macenstein! (Oh, and be sure to enter ALL our “12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaways!)
Please note: Comments may take a while to show up, please do not double-post. Thanks!

    Sonic Blaster, from the Weapons factory at Villengard. DOCTOR WHO, “The Doctor Dances”.

    The Doctor: [identifying Jack’s weapon] Sonic Blaster. Fifty-first century. Weapons factory at Villengard?
    Captain Jack Harkness: You’ve been to the factories?
    The Doctor: Once.
    Captain Jack Harkness: Well, they’re gone now, destroyed. Main reactor went critical, vaporized the lot.
    The Doctor: Like I said. Once. [looking over at Rose; matter-of-factly] There’s a banana grove there now. [looks at Jack; smiling] The Doctor: I like bananas. Bananas are good.

    Captain Jack: [when he realizes his Sonic Blaster’s stopped working] Damn it! It’s the special features, they really drain the battery.
    Rose Tyler: The battery? [both run through the door the Doctor just opened; after she stops] That’s so lame.
    Captain Jack: I was going to send for another one but *somebody’s* [looking at the Doctor] got to blow up the factory…!

    Captain Jack Harkness: [refering to the banana that he tosses back to the Doctor] Nice switch.
    The Doctor: [catches banana; holds it up as he speaks] It’s from the groves of Villengard, thought it was appropriate.
    Captain Jack Harkness: There’s really a banana grove in the heart of Villengard? And you did that?
    The Doctor: [semi-shrug; waving the banana proudly] Bananas are good.
