[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 15538, member: 945"] [b]backups[/b] I'm fairly lax at backups. I don't own a zip drive or a CD burner. I've never really had a need for either of them. I do own a Superdisk (like a 1.44 floppy disk, but holds 120 megs), and it's just spiffy. I once took the time to back up all the important things on my computer. I had Windows installed, and a host of shareware applications, all the typical stuff, really. So, I knew that if my drive ever did crash, I could reinstall windows, and I had most of that other stuff on CDs, so there wasn't anything to back up. That left: My word documents My original compositions from Cakewalk and other miscellaneous things. I compressed it all, and put it on ONE 1.44 floppy disk. I should probably do that again. It might require two floppy disks now though. (gasp!) [/QUOTE]
