Backup before it's too late. |
No problemo there ... I keep all important files on a file server, which does get backed up.
Poor old laptop. Well, it's about time to chuck it.

No kidding! I've seen some of those pictures of Dells on fire ... pretty scary.
True story though: I once ordered a Dell desktop system and they accidentally delivered two systems instead of one. I called them a few times to tell them about their mistake, but they wouldn't agree to come out and pick it up. So I just used it, and eventually gave it away a couple years later. Gotta love those 2fers

Lucky. They must have them for nearly nothing if they didn't bother to pick it up.

Are there any real advantages to that aside from Japanese menus that I won't be able to read?

Nope. Not really. Depending on how well you know your menus/dialogs, you can easily navigate them and learn what the characters are at the same time.
