Sorry guys. I feel like I asked a question and ran out on you. Life got busy but has returned to no life again. Some great info from everyone. I appreaciate everyone input and I agree with Jerry the that was a funny poke! lol. I am a little ashamed to tell you I work in the IT field, have for long time. I am stuck in the server room and basically have been getting paid good money to be the server/network grunt that only pushes buttons or runs a cable anymore. In the beginning my counter part and I tried to keep all the duties and permissions that went with our admin accounts. Was a losing battle and after a couple of years not winning. We gave into the idea of getting paid the same to do a lot less work. We now delegate to our counter parts in HQ to do the work we use to and to let us know when they have it completed. We then inform the clients it is done and take credit for a job well done. It takes some practice to sleep with your eyes open, keep the head bobs to a minimum all while resting one hand on the keyboard and one on the mouse. I have lost touch with the desktop part and like my rcs piece them together with what is on hand. Sometime I am lucky and find some decent parts in our trash can at work. Thus, the reason I have no experience with a mac. I really need to combine my data onto a couple large hard drives. I have over 15 hard drive but have only managed to get 11 of them connected up at a time and still have a dvd writer attached. This is my current setup and has survived for some time. It's due to be blown by the air compressor again. Damn thing get's blown more often then I do. The links and info for doing it myself will help a lot. I think I can remember how to put one together, but had no real idea what was the best option to get for a desktop. Thanks again.
Freeze, your's looks all dressed up for a big night on the town. If you ever decide to cut the cords with it, let me know. I know just the DVD/VCR Recorder that would love to show her a good time.
