USB disks are much larger than that these days, cheap, and don't

hmm... guess one man's "usb disk" is another man's flash drive. i
never did trust "zip" disks and floppy disks and cds/dvds for storage
other than as temporary one. i forget where i saw it that solid state
drives, i.e. "flash drives" aren't as reliable as good old hard
drives, but is getting there especially now laptops are going to be
equipped with "flash drives" instead of regular hard drives.
