Thank you all.

1. I'm in Snow Leopard 10.6.8 so Rosetta and upgrading are not issues for me. If I have any old migrated ppc apps lying around I don't care if they don't work, it'd be past time to buy new/improved v's anyway.

2. kjk, I don't have a NAS but that could be a future problem since I've been looking for a better one than the BuffaloTech quad that I bought then returned because it was so noisy and and had no way to upgrade its firmware except thru a PC (not a Mac). Maybe I'll just stick to using the external firewire drives for now and await better/cheaper/bigger thunderbolt drives to hit the market.

3. rcuadro, having to put in an admin password every time I delete is a real show-stopper. Every time? Even when my account has admin priviledges? Even when that account owns the file with rw permissions?
