        (The depressing thing is that I'm moving out at the end of the academic year, and have /nowhere near/ enough disk space to mirror the media machine :()

      • FauxFaux
        aCiD2: I don't believe so, you can hax it with left() and right() though. :)

        • 2008-05-20 14130, 2008

      • aCiD2
        It has an uppercas command though?

        • 2008-05-20 14124, 2008

      • nikki
        because it can't boot from the 320 gig one

        well, it's an old computer

        • 2008-05-20 14126, 2008

      • Muz
        There's 1.5TB within my desktop, and another 2TB on the desk in assorted firewire/usb drives

      • nikki
        I built it in 2001 with a budget of £300, so the parts were all pretty crappy

        • 2008-05-20 14143, 2008

      • nikki
        so I assume it shits itself because the drive is too big
