What       > good is Imgburn without a dvd drive?              For content which does not exist as an Internet ISO9660 file,       you can convert physical media to ISO format, for distribution       to others.              As for "why don't you use USB flash like the cool kids", I       can give you an example. My most-healthy USB stick blew a tire       on the Internet and ended up in the ditch. So I couldn't even       finish a transfer I was doing with it today. I consider it a poor       investment, when I pay many times the blank media price for       flash, and the damn things keep croaking. And this is only       happening because the controllers on those things are       such shite. SSDs don't fail like that! Different controller.               Paul              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
