How many of those deleted pages are for laundry soap with the old label? I'm not sure how much I should care.

It’s also websites that have the last known forum posts on fixing some insanely important problems and bugs in Windows/Linux/MacOS. It’s something. Some archived rants on fixing Mac Plus issues was a lifesaver for that old computer!

Twenty years ago, I started saving pages from Microsoft's KB because they always seemed to delete the ones I wanted. I've only referred to my cache a few dozen times, but I'm sure that it added ten years to my life.
