OT: Simple computer question

[patrick.bureau at gmail.com (Patrick Bureau)]

1. get fast internet (and don't tell me you live in the hicks, I have 3
acres in farmland area and I have wireless 3M link)
2. well if it was free, then it beat me
3. cameras sometimes don't read a card properly, but if you put it in the
card reader from computer (if you have one) you can format it again and
usually solves the problem, I have this random issue with my camedia L2500
and SM cards from time to time. Another attempt can be done with  simply
using windex on the contacts of the card and cleaning them or an eraser to
make sure no deposit (oil can prevent anything from happening even if your
fingers don't feel greasy).... I would try that too.

Cheers, this damn year is almost over.

Well, this one was free (thanks Santa), and only about $80 for 1G, which is
lots big for a mix that'll keep me happy for a week or so. And I just
crunched the numbers, it should take 3 1/2 hours at my DL speed of 24bps.
Which is really not that bad. Of course, I'll be gone when it finishes,
trying to find out why my new camera won't accept three out of four CF
cards. I really have a way with electronics eh?
