I took my ibook in 2006 and 2007 and downloaded daily to the laptop. I did not have an external drive then, and usually waited until we got back to Marks friends cabin to do a DVD back up.
I had three 2 gig cards and filled them up quickly, you'll be surprised at how many pictures you take.:-) I shoot a lot at the nature centre, its a pretty neat place. Bears, cougar's, ottor's, eagles and deer.
