Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wasn't Data's (ST:tNG) memory capacity measured in terabytes?

If I add up all the storage space I've got in my apartment right now I'm getting very close to a Terabyte.

Hi :) My graphite AirPort died and I'm looking to replace it. If I have the original AirPort card in my iBook (also graphite), can I buy the AirPort Extreme/Express base station or would I have to buy a new AirPort Extreme card? Am I making any sense? At all? Needs my wireless connection back!!

ETA: I see that the newer card won't work in my computer. So, can I connect to a new (Extreme or Express) base station with my original AirPort card or am I hosed?

Hey. New board.

I have a friend that made a 1.5 TB Raid 5 recently.

ETA: 6 300 GB drives, 5 of which you stripe as space and the 6th of which holds parity information (so you don't lose all the data if you lose one drive)

Guh.

I just bought a pair of 250GB drives for backup purposes. That put me well over 1TB.

I've got loose plans to buy a G5 in the fall, and part of the plan to put around half a Terabyte of storage internally on the beast for audio and video editing. My server is already sitting at about half a Terabyte.

Damn, we have a lot of storage. I remember the 120k floppies on my Apple II.

My first computer had 64K of memory. It was considered a lot.

You guys know that if you add much more memory, your equipment may achieve sentience.

I think mine already HAS achieved sentience.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I think mine already HAS achieved sentience.

Is that you, or your computer saying that.

It's nice to know that something's sentient at ND's place.
