That's pretty much how I work here too, my partner uses a USB memory key or 
Muvo to shuffle files between work and home and I either use an external HD or 
my CF cards to shuffle data between friends etc however I back up now to DVD.

I still prefer to write a closed CD of only the data I need printed though.

In any case I'm sure a few of you have a decent unused CD-R drive you could 
send to Ann, I have a few but unfortunately the postage costs would be a bit 
prohibitive for a drives of that size. Come on team...
