Heads up about drafting from hotel business centers...

I was finishing a blueprint at a hotel last week. Their computer froze and I lost all progress. Had to start over from my rough sketches. Now I always carry a portable hard drive. Don't rely on public setups for important drafts.

Yeah I read that a lot of hotels barely update the software on those shared computers. Makes them super unstable and full of old bugs. I heard someone say they got a virus from a hotel printer driver once. Just not worth trusting with real work.

Totally agree about the software updates being skipped. I used a hotel computer once to check email and it was so slow I gave up. Those old bugs make them useless for anything important. Hearing about the printer driver virus is just another reason to avoid them. Just bringing your own device is way safer.
