[Leica] TECHNICAL QUESTION?? ANSWER PLEASE???

[tedgrant at shaw.ca (Ted Grant)]

HI CREW,
Yeah I know it's me asking a techie question! :-) Well you all know "I'm
clueless when it comes to techie things."
 So please be kind to the "old lad." Thank you. :-)

Remember those little, I think they were about 2"X 2"square discs we loaded
all kinds of images on? Then technologies advanced and we moved to CD's and
Memory Sticks" And heaven knows what?

I have quite a number of those 2X2 discs, if that's what they're called?

Can I take them to some computer techie shop and have the info on them
downloaded to memory sticks of today? I'm sure there's a wealth of "old
images" loaded on them and I'd like to retrieve them if possible? And not
going to cost the Bank of Canada monetary reserves to pay for the change
over? :-)

At one time I did have a back-up hard drive, unfortunately the chap
installing it didn't do it right! YEP you guessed! So when we did have a
computer crash and burn I lost about 10,000 images because the back-up drive
wasn't doing anything but taking up space in my little computer room!!! :-(
:-(

Your suggestions please.

Thanks a bunch.

cheers,
ted
