I started getting a clue about this after seeing all the digital cameras brought to a Christmas party I was dragged to. I zeroed in on the clown with the Sony digital camcorder, drilling him down about the storage requirements of what he was capturing. No, what he was capturing between now and when someone killed him. How many bazillion gigabyte video files are we going to have out there looking for storage? You guys that have EMC have the right idea (IMO). -JCJ

Dear QS: I just got an offer in the mail the other day, they sent two rolls of film (20 shots each) and you take the pictures send them in the enclosed envelope to this service, I think in Oregon and they develop, send you prints AND store your pictures FOREVER if you remain active with them, on your own little website or something where you can pull them up, email them or do whatever you want. Costs around $8 per 20 shot roll BUT they GIVE YOU the film for free. For people who either cant afford, or dont take enough pictures to warrant a digital camera this gives them the same advantages and maybe even more since you do get a hard print. I think it will certainly require a lot of storage. JDN
