There are several ads this weekend for 1 GB thumb drives for about $20-$25. A gig of system memory is about $100. Seems like a large difference. Reasons? Inquiring minds want to know. The reason I was looking at thumb memory is my college freshman daughter thinks one would be useful. Comments, good brands to look at, potential problems, size, etc. Thanks, Jim Maki [EMAIL PROTECTED]
