LOL, your procedure sounds pretty safe however you don't seem to be factoring the travel and duplicate equipment costs into your price per GB :-) Just looking in an Officworks catalogue that was rammed into my post box this morning an external Lacie 250GB drive is AU$239 and a 50 pack of TDK DVD ROMs are AU$37.95 (235GB) and an Imation 16x external DVD burner is AU$169, so I can't really see a cost advantage to either ;-) Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
