i actually don't honestly :o
if i were going to buy one , i'd only buy a external usb one personally, because i could just put it in a drawer & use it when i need it on any computer i want.
tho i always install operating systems using a flash drive.


I probably would if I had a couple capable flash drives.

Well, I just sit here with a long ass sewing needle...and just punch all the data on to CD's and DVD's one bit (or pit) at a time. Took me two years to make a music CD :D

Actually, with my backup system, I NEED a boot CD for when Windows won't boot. I know I can make a USB stick to do the same, but I kinda like CD's and DVD's. At least I'll never forget I got one in my pocket and toss my pants in the washing machine :)

I was messing around with another BitDefnder Tool....a bootable scanner that runs before anything else...the COOL part about this program is not the program....but the logo/full screen wallpaper that they use.
I searched the boot CD to find the image in it's original quality...not there...or it must be in a .dll or a .exe part of the boot disc :( So I have to take a DSLR pic of it...this is the best one I could get :/

For those that haven't been keeping up...I sent them one of these:






...and so far, recieved FOUR of these, ALL w/o Icepacks LOL

Actually they have great service....normally. I just think they are still getting re-oragnized. Probably haven't hired anyone for the assembly line where the IcePack gets attached :)

yeah according to your updates , they have great service, but they need to get their shit together in the assembly line for the IcePack.
i had good service like that but without any major assembly problems with seagate & crucial :D
