I just got done backing up my data. You know with the cd burner after I had all the files in it only took about 5 minutes to do. CD-Rs are so cheap right now if you look around somewhere around the 15¢ mark and believe me that will hold a lot more than you think. So don't even think about using floppies....lol...

I guess the new Dell computers are not going to even have the floppy drive in them. The other day a friend of mine wanted me to help her make up a garage sale sign. So I found some clip art and just put it on a floppy and run it up there. That was so easy. But progress you know.

Now go back up......lol......Janet

Guess what I found last week when cleaning the basement--a never-opened box of 5.25 floppies--talk about antiques. And I have hundreds of those little black stickers that made them undeletable. Do you know any one who needs a book on BASIC? Kathey

CD-Rs may be cheap, but the burners still aren't!!! LOL That's why I back up to zip-discs.
