So we think that CD-ROMs and DVDs will survive. Heck, give it another few years and it might be a different story. Bottom line is that the IT industry needs to survive and whatever new stuffs that they dish out for the consumers' benefit might actually be for it's own benefit. Digital photography is in vogue. Images are free...capture and trash as you like. But how often do you actually spend the time to trash the rubbish that you capture for free? So you save the good ones, you catalog them nicely, you upgrade the storage system from time to time. See how often you have actually forgotten to do all that. Then it becomes a chore and the homework becomes a pain the the a**. Very soon, even you do not know where that great shot was kept or there seems to be too many great shots to remember. Just airing my thoughts......nothing serious. Dan K. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
