[dusthillguy]

Nah, I'm right handed. I was controlling the camera with my right hand, so I had to use my left for everything else.

I didn't know that could could fit on 100MB.

[dusthillguy]

You'd think Deven would be more demanding than 100MB.

100?! That Zip drive certainly looks a lot cooler with it's clear blue casing.

[dusthillguy]

I agree, the original zip drive looked very good.

[hanger1800]

deven gallo clearly isnt enough of a man to fill a whole 100MB

@HarryMatic The 750 - oh jeez. You can strip down Linux Live and still have a desktop here.

Oh man, I remember back in the day having one of these internal zip100 drives. At first the drive got overworked so it would start slowing down, then eventually broke by sledgehammer.
