What's really slowing things up is my need to get things organized and backed up onto DVD. And I am going to break down and order the 500GB drive. I was wavering between the Firewire drive and the Ethernet one, but Karl says the FW is the better choice, so I'm going with that.<BR/><BR/>Although I'd be interested to know how were going to go about making that FTP server...<BR/><BR/>----------------------<BR/><BR/>R.,<BR/><BR/>Sigh. Yeah, Roy was an ideal boss for a year or so, then he just became a huge drag. I'd agree that his design sense was kinda lame, particularly in terms of copy flow. I'd say 'I guess that's because he was a Creative Director, and not Art Director, but his headlines were equally lame. Not that mine are any better, of course.<BR/><BR/>His real skill was in schmoozing people, and it's true that he was waaaaaaaaaay good at that.<BR/><BR/>D.Dave Koppermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09292071349686573917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457411005352662997.post-56031142424808508042007-08-21T11:36:00.000-04:002007-08-21T11:36:00.000-04:00Ah, Roy Freemantle. I remember the man well. What ...Ah, Roy Freemantle. I remember the man well. <BR/><BR/>What a strange and funny man, in a "absent-minded professor" sort of way. You're sure right about the self-obsessed part. I remember him bitching about paying for necessary supplies while polishing his Jaguar. <BR/><BR/>He did did teach me some pretty valuable design lessons early on but I am still suprised that he was so successful, considering his lack of mental capacity (always thought he was a little senile) and his only slightly above average design skills. Probabaly great for the 70s. Not so good now.<BR/><BR/>I also remember using his CD buner drive after hours to burn my first music CDs... and having him yell at me for not asking him. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the memeories ROY (and Dave too)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457411005352662997.post-80209488962629087272007-08-21T02:03:00.000-04:002007-08-21T02:03:00.000-04:00or.... you could have what I have.... 6 computers...or.... you could have what I have.... 6 computers with an average of 3 hard drives in each one, that are anywhere between 120-300gigs each. All of them networked and communicating(including the mac)... you want me to set up a virtual ftp server, I can loan you some space......Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02607449580032778498noreply@blogger.com
