Not sure about DVD backup, but for about the cost of a few months of DVDs, you can get yourself a firewire external hard drive and a firewire card to do a fully automated backup with faubackup. That would be a better option than to DVD. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
