OK, I am freaking out. I just deleted like 20,000 items from my computer. I think it was just a bunch of stuff from some programs I can re-install, but just to make sure, is there a log or something to check what I deleted? God, I hope I didn't F-up my computer.

Unless you have some sort or data tracking tool installed, nope, there's no way to see what you just deleted.

Good luck. :\

Yeah, I actually stopped the deletion after a thousand or so items were deleted, so I saw what was in the trash. It was some programs, but they were duplicates or something so nothing lost. It was actually really weird. I went to eject and image, and when I did the trash automatically emptied, but with a ton of stuff in it that I didn't put there. It was the weirdest thing ever. But yeah, I do need to back my stuff up. I am hoping to buy a firewire hard drive to do just that; and to use as the video capture drive instead of Hard drive.
