    Do you believe in magic cheese Chris?
    Laugh, and the world laughs with you. Cry, and you just water down your vodka.

    if the file has lower pressure, it sucks in surrounding data until it gains incredible amounts of data-mass. so its dense and stuff. like it becomes a black hole.

    Gee whiz - patent it.

    Of course, getting it back again will be interesting

    What did you do, dump beer on the HD? Scandisk can't read through beer damage, you know. I find it interesting that the programmers had the foresight for use TB for a file size that isn't yet really supported.

    Won't it be fun when we have MSDN downloads of only 350 TB?

    If you say it like that, it sounds just like you could fit it onto a single CD
