Hello Mark. Thanks for your informative message.
I have the following questions. 1. I thought you could put your documents in the Cloud. 2. Are you sure that Apple will not replace I disk with something else as I understood they would be launching I disk again under a new form as Apple were not sure what they would do with I disk. Just my reflections. Kawal. On 23 May 2012, at 03:03 AM, "M.
