前几天试用了HP的Upline Service，总体感觉是不够酷，普普通通，没啥特别的亮点。这倒好，昨天就收到一封该网站停止服务的邮件，幸亏没在上面存储重要的文件。

邮件全文如下：

Dear HP Upline Service subscriber,

On Thursday, April 17th, HP suspended operation of the HP Upline Service. We fully anticipate that suspension of the Upline Service will be temporary and short > in duration, and will notify you when the Upline Service is operational again.

不给用就不给用憋，还整个地域歧视-_-!

更新： 2008年4月24日，Upline Service又重新开放。

Dear HP Upline User,

The HP Upline service is now back on and fully operational. We apologize for the recent service interruption and want to assure you we have taken steps to > ensure that our technical issues have been resolved.

Your service will restart automatically. Here are a couple of tips. • Please make sure your Upline desktop client is running. (If it is, you will see the Upline icon in the system tray.)
• Scheduled backups will begin automatically. Please note that you can click Back Up in the widget to initiate a backup at any time.

Any files you previously backed up are still in your Upline storage. You can access them online by logging into the Upline website.

Please contact us at www.uplinetechsupport.com if you have questions or need help restarting your service.

We would like to assure you that during the interruption our encryption technology ensured that your data was protected. Protecting your data is, and will > remain, our highest priority.

Regards,
