CHAPTER OF THE WEEK:  What's the best way to save large files (about 5 gigs worth) on my hard drive?
Dear Serdar:
I wish to save large files (about 5 gigs worth) on my hard drive, and format the rest. I tried creating a partition, but I have to have the "basic disk configuration" and I do not have a disk to restore those. I also looked into creating a dynamic volume, but the info on such is extremely vague in my opinion and I do not wish to do anything that can sabotage these files. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

The Missing Link
A novel idea -- book goes out via text message
[Associated Press]
You've heard of hardback and paperback -- now get ready for cellback. In a case of truth being much stranger than fiction, an author in China has written a book to be read via text message -- perfect for the leisure reader on the go. The 60 chapters of Outside the Fortress Besieged will come to a reader's cell phone in 70-word increments and is expected to do well in China, where people get much of their information via text message. It's kind of a romance novel, and will be a test to see if romance can succeed without Fabio on the cover.
