meelieI am about to go buy the cheapest usb disk I can find(2GB maybe just so i can potentially use it for something else in the future) to test if the disk utility I downloaded will let me use the usb port on my 800.11g airport extreme base station to mount an external hard drive. Exciting! I would use one of my other usb drives but if I used my ye olde 1GB ipod stick it would ruin the ipod-ness of it(the drive needs to be reformatted as mac OS extended) and I don't want to risk ruining my super adorable 8GB zipzip lego usb drive.
if I am able to mount the cheap usb drive after reformatting I am then allowed to buy a huuuuge external hd to plug into it and get some cloning software to make backups of mah stuffs. I am thinking I will get SuperDuper! shareware as it will let me clone for free and then I can see if I want the full lot.
this is what I have been looking at stuff for/about for the last 3 hours. before that I watched survivor (GO VILLAINS!) and ate waffles. mmm, waffles.
