Default I need a new hard drive...

The 30 GB drive I have on my computer is FULL of everyone's pics of their Corvette's and the movie's that are posted on here! Of course, my slideshow screensaver never seems to run outta pics! Keep up the GREAT pics guys! Hopefully I will get mine on here soon... I'm such a slacker in the winter. haha

:iagree: I have a wireless router attached to my cable modem and can take the laptop anywhere in the house. Best $$ I ever spent computer wise.

Without it I wouldn't have seen all those great pics of your CCWs and wouldn't be buying a set for myself. :D ;)

lol... considering I have Windows XP, several programs, AND several video games on that drive, it didn't take long to fill up with pics and videos from the site. I just picked up an 80GB Maxtor for $30 after rebates at Office Depot. Thanks! Oh, and consider this thread closed, I'm already getting TONS of IMs from people whining about how this should be in another section of the forum - amazing how many "forum police" there are out there. Geez, give me a break... just trying to post something funny. I have a ZO6, doesn't that count for anything? Time to move over to zo6vette.com and stop coming here. It's been fun guys... cya!
