For the same money that Tadpole is talking about, stop by the Electronics dept at Walmart. USB Hard drives for $30~$90. Save photos, plans, links and such. I picked up a 250 gig drive for $40, way more that enough space to put my data. Easy to transfer data to second computer, just plug it in and it is ready to go. I even put one on the wifes computer, she backs up all her volunteer work data and takes it with her to different meetings and can show/update/print as needed anywhere.

And to think my first home computer had a woping 512K of memory. and was called an IBM PC CLONE.

Tandy 1000 for me!

Ben, did you lose your address book? If you did, I’ll send you an e-mail so you can re-enter mine!

Radio Shack Mod 3 was my second computer (1980). My first was a Radio Shack Computer later to be refered to as the Mod 1 (1974) It had a 16 bit memory, with nothing that could be called data storage, disk drives had not yet been invented, we did develop a technique of getting data out to and from a tape.

TO all ,what i wanted to say was i’m back up on the forum with a new computer after the old one broke down ,i have back up on the new one, i must learn to work this new one,to much junk on it.ben
