On just this subject, a photographer friend is currently in New Zealand and has been airmailing me back packs of CDs (make two copies of each CD produced and mail one set back to someone in the UK) I check the batches of CDs when they arrive, and one had 10 unreadable files - nothing would read them, and when I looked you could see a manufacturing blemish (even good brands are worth a visual inspection) I suspect my friend has not been quite as careful with the verification as I might have been :-) bye for now Keith Cooper Northlight Images http://northlight-images.co.uk Photography - Digital Imaging - Apple Mac Consultancy Tel +44 (0)116 291 9092 Mobile +44 (0)780 162 9397 =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
