I shudder at the prospect of dealing with the shelves of various media I have from the past 15 years of doing audio work. Bernoulli 90 drives, Syquest EZ135, Zip100, Jaz, Jaz2, Syquest 44, and an unknown number of other formats are all in storage with old show files on them. I do tend to have at least one of each of those drives still around, but who knows if there are drivers and such. I should do it soon while I could still get a vintage machine up and running and slowly shift the media to a newer and more transportable standard.
I wear the cheese. It does not wear me.

I really like the new google reader. I dropped bloglines like a bad habit.

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

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Windows?

Heh.
Nope, DOS 5.0 came with a file manager thingie (that was somewhat patterned after the Windows 3.0 (I think) file manager). It also had a program launcher and task swapper.
ION,
If you use the google reader, does it show up in you google "my account" page?

Yeah, as soon as I snarked, the hub got that "I know exactly the file manager thingie you mean, but I can't remember the name either" look.

Oh, and does anyone remember the Leading Edge Word Processor? I wanna get that working in my DOS virtual machine - I did a shitload of creative writing back in the day on my Leading Edge XT clone.

Oh, and is there a way to create iso files in OS X that does't involve the command line? [link]
Toast can do it, right? I should install that on my MacBook.
