I don't like SI that much, but I can't go into to it too much at the moment. Main Computer is down and is undergoing a Windows Upgrade. Hope I don't lose much data. Know of a good back-up hard drive? I'd like to be able to spin all of the stuff to an offline backup HD once in awhile. Looked at one that needed an Optical hookup....don't have that. Really just want something simple; a hookup through USB preferably. Using a backup machine at the moment. With Silver, I think there is the potential for a sharp decline in it's use. Photography, for example, is roughly 50% of the uses as I recall. Not sure exactly, but I think 50%. So with Digital Cameras proliferating I don't see the potential for silver to be as strong as for Gold. Just opinion; I'm sure there will always be a photographic requirement, just that it should decline somewhat. I'm familiar with Sinclair's Site; just read it this morning matter of fact. Gotta bolt. This machine is unwieldy and I'm not even certain that a PM to Nemer just went through. Have to go over to the Computer Kids subject and ask there about suggestions for back up drives......hope to be back up by Monday.
