John, You can be such a comedian some times. Yea, goofy how this compression works. For some of us, perhaps, faster than expected, maybe. I will get up-2-date sooner or later.

Re: [H] Thumb/Flash Drive Recommendation
Tharin O., I am now GB'd into oblivion. Everything seems to be GB related. I can deal with this. Just wondering with which data block I want to use for now. Odd this current world is. I am still having trouble with the interfaces that seem to be going away. But, that is just perhaps me.

Re: [H] Thumb/Flash Drive Recommendation
The Corsair Voyager flash drives are very quick and have a rubber sleeve that makes them fairly ruggedized. I was quite sad when I lost my 1gb flash drive. I don't know how they compare in price now but the Corsair units were on the high side of the scale. -Tharin O. Al <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Looking for suggestions on a thumb/flash drive.

Re: [H] Thumb/Flash Drive Recommendation
I'm happy with the San Disk Cruzer Titanium. Looks good, very sturdy, and has a retractable USB connector so it won't get damage. Not the cheapest one tho.
