Oh boy.
I could store every episode of Lassie and Leave It to Beaver on my HDD and never have to bother with those pesky backup DVDs.
Oh joy.

well thats why Bram Cohen invented bit torrent: to fill up our hard drives faster than we can buy new ones.........
i have my comp for about 7 months now, when i buildt it i put a 200 GB disk in, later on i added another.......
now theyre getting pretty full AGAIN........ ima have to get externals soon :(
EDIT: those 1 TB disks will be hard to burn yourself, since the groves in the pits will require a much more precise laser.........
