Yeah, Amazon usually is the best deal on books and music (they have a lot more sales and deals on that than iTunes). I do find that BestBuy is better for electronics, though. Sorry to get somewhat off-topic.

To get back on topic, that is way more storage than I think I would ever need. I could put the few documents I have from my Genealogy research, the family pictures I've had scanned, and non-confidental-type work-stuff like my module hand-outs on there. It wouldn't come close, though.

I have long since lost old school papers and the files I had of my writing (No, I'm not a writer, I just wrote some fanfic and even some original short-shorts. That stuff is on a couple of websites, though, so not really lost. I haven't written anything in almost 3 years now, anyway). Anyway, the aforementioned documents were lost due to computer crashes and/or losing jump drives/floppy disks). If a cloud had been available and I'd put that stuff in it, I'd still have it, assuming the cloud didn't go belly-up.

/Sorry for rambling.
