Damn, I just bought a 300 gig external HD for $199. A Week later, I bought a new PC with a 250 gig in it. I was like wtf!

But external is good anyway incase I ever have to reformat or whatever I deffantly wont lose my stuff.

External HD's rule.

I have one, but it'd cost more to ship to the US than it's worth.

Don't go radioshack. Didn't you see that I spent $199 for a 300 gig? Why would you spend $145 for a 80?

Not USB 2.0, which I'm using right now. It's actually faster for me, but still, firewire is fast too.

It's faster than Firewire? Hmm, maybe I should try using my USB 2.0.

Alright well, It all depends on what band you go to.

Around here, Some people have them at age 17. Some banks make you wait til your 18 to get it. Find out what age your bank allows. If you have a account in your name then you will need to sign all these papers and shit and open up and checking account and savings account and all. If it's not in your name, you need the person to be with you to sign the papers.

I don't know much about it cause I don't have one myself cause my bank says I gotta be 18 so good luck and If I said anything wrong, someone please correct so yates doesn't get the wrong info.
