We just took a trip and I was downloading both my camera (SmartMedia) and my daughters (CompactFlash) to my 5300c. I upgraded the HD to 20Gb after I bought it. I set up a folder to hold the downloads and put an alias of it in the Apple Menu so it was very simple to transfer the pictures. When I got home I simply uploaded all the pictures to the file server where I normally store them. I've done this on a couple of trips including a camping trip - no problems. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
