Chienworks wrote on 5/31/2006, 10:00 AM I just saw this on my screen when i inserted what i thought was a blank CD-RW. http://www.chienworks.com/media/huge-optical-disc.jpg Sadly, i couldn't access it. Maybe i need to upgrade my burner's firmware. ;) Back to post

The funny thing about this fluke is that we will have hard drives this size in less than 5 years... 1
