Photo Friday の投稿がすっかり遅れてしまっていたが、今週のお題は「Broken」。最近壊れたもの、壊されたもの、いろいろあるのだが、やはり印象的だったのは、ちょっと前のお話になるけれど、これかな。詳しい経緯は、当方の MovableType ベースの前の Weblog で。電子機器の衝動買いにより、問題解決、というお話でした。
This PS2 CD-ROM disk was broken by my daughter's too strong pull-out trial from a plastic case. (Design of the case was so bad!!!) I was in Shinjuku area (famous shopping town in Tokyo) when I heard this news from my wife. I went to a discount camera/game shop to replace this broken CD-ROM to a new one, using shopping point card. My son was so pleased to get a new disk, as he could find that all his TV game rounds clear data was saved in a PS2 memory card, not in the disk, that could also work with a new CD-ROM. Saved digital data was more important than broken physical disk, in this case, for my 8 years old son.
