Wow.

I have been impressed by the amount of detail in his Time Machine tips and found them very helpful.

James will be very sorely missed. He was a top notch contributor. His website about troubleshooting Time Machine is very well written and continues to be referenced here in ASC dozens of times daily.

RIP Pondini.

Pondini has helped me more times than I can count on both hands, and was one of the members here I respected the most. So sad and surprised to hear of his passing
