Just reading the Circuits section of the NYT last week and came across this handy tip from a reader:
E-Mailing Your New PC To the Editor: I bought a new computer a week before reading "A Port Beckons: Moving to a New PC" (Basics, March 21). The method I used to transfer files (not applications) is very simple. I simply copied the files I wanted and sent them to myself by e-mail. Then I went to my new computer and copied the files from my e-mail message to its new location. This is quicker than using floppy disks.�� -- JOSEPH H. ZIMMERMAN ��Wilmington, Del. What a great idea, I thought. But then > find / -user jdhunter | wc 328302 328355 18517242 Better come up with something else... John Hunter PS: I use nnml with GNUS and subscribe to lots of mailing lists. My Mail folder thus accounts for 150,000 of these files. Wonder what the fuck the other 178,000 are? _______________________________________________ Bits mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sugoi.org/mailman/listinfo/bits
