What you fail to understand is that Milan needs a 4Gb stick because it'll make his tape changing job a lot easier ...

Or is it to hide his porn collection on inside a small hollowed out section of ".Net for Dummies" on his top shelf?

If he gets an ARCHOS he can watch his porn wherever he goes - ahem, allegedly...

Maybe it is simply that he wants to pay way over the odds for something which will be worth a percentage of its current value in 6 months time. Personanlly I'd go down the dipstick 1 route and buy a few 1gb ones. I bought a cheap one which is a 1gb stick, Mp3 player, voice recorder and FM radio for about £50.

Why not a USB-powered external disk?

thanks,

Milan.

USB Memory Stick

If you get a 1GB USB memory stick then what happens when you want to copy a 1.1GB file.

I find that it's either best to get either the most inexpensive thing that will do the job - 128MB USB stick and when 128MB is not enough throw it away and buy a larger one - or - go the whole hog and buy a very very large one. Ooh er. Then that will see you OK for years.

When I bought mine it was either 2GB (£200) or 4GB (£400) and I have on a few instances needed to copy over 2GB of data.

[milanbenes]

yes my point entirely

ok it's back to the 4gb

I have a creative zen (60 gig) which allows me to transfer files with me AND carry my entire music collection. Which is nice.

Dont give in to peer pressure Beans, stand your ground and do what YOU want.

What are you going to do if you need to copy over a 4.2GB file?

Or maybe 17 TB of data? Could get expensive.
