Now I know how to use that saved JB Hi-Fi birthday gift voucher - although I do realize that Canberra is not exactly Northern Australia!! Victoria

I bought mine in Big W (Woolies) for about $25 for 256 meg. You can get them for 1gig now for about $45. You only need a big one if you have lots of photos. I've got 4 different trees on mine (about 6,000 people) and haven't used a quarter of it.

Just reading Heather's thread about backing up everything on computer. A friend had everything backed up on CD and it got a 'mould'. Don't understand it exactly, but the computer people told her it was common in hot humid climates. You have to back up onto pen /flash drives.
