    Advise on Backup Software

    I was thinking about doing that, or just buying an internal drive and hooking it up with my hdd to USB connector and storing the drive somewhere once the files are loaded on. I was trying to save some money though, because i have about 200 dvd-r's laying around. I used to be big into 'backing...

    Need recommendation on used SUV

    You are exactly right. I can fit 2 kids in the middles seats, and 1 in the back. I took out half of the 3rd row back seat to get the dog's kennel in there and then that leaves some room for the luggage. We have a cabin on a lake about 3 hours away from the house, so packing up the van for...

    Any thoughts about this battery question..

    I have an ASUS EEE PC 1005, and will be taking it on a trip and am planning on using it to let the kids watch movies on it. How much battery life would it save if instead of backing up movies to the hard drive, I put them on a flash drive? (movies we already own, but since the netbook doesn't...
