Once I could afford it, I bought a CDRW to which I now transfer all of my important files. ALL of them. I sleep much better now. Back when my Zip drives went bad, the disks were still very expensive, maybe $10-15 each in packs of 6 disks, and about $25 if bought seperately. Man! The prices have come down quite a bit, but you can buy (depending on brand and store) maybe 50 blank CDs for $15; can't beat that with a stick! When DVD writers get a bit cheaper, I'm going thataway. Blank DVD prices seem to be dropping quickly, too... -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
