Hows about stay in bed AND start a fight!

That is awful, Swiss, so sorry - I thought you had been quietish lately.
Although I don't always follow my own advice could I suggest a REALLY good investment is an external USB2/Firewire hard drive. I have one and can throughly recommend it.

In UK, around £200 will buy 250 GigaBytes - complication free, simply plug and play, with the bonus of great portability, enabling you to take just the drive (and its PSU and leads) with you, wherever you go. Tremendously handy for mass movement of data. Plug it into anything that has either of the requisite interfaces.

Yes, excellent!
The big 250 GBs weren't available from Iomega when I got mine, so I chose a Maxtor and it has proven faultless.
Very similar equivalents available from LaCie, who I believe incorporate the PSU inside the drive case, and from Western Digital who don't, but their case is transparent, so you can see its 'parts' and a million glowing lights!
