It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

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

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.

Sorry. Kidding. I have no impulse control.

eta: ND is a brilliant sound designer and all-around good guy. His home has become sentient in order to worship him.

So, no answer in re: the AirPort base station?

Sorry, missed the AirPort Question.

Yes, the new ones will work with your old gear.
