Judy, DVDs will hold about 7x more information than a CD. We use them at work quite often if we're burning a copy of a large project for a client, including photos and drawings.

I agree, that's really cheap for a new operating system!!! So far we haven't dealt with any Apple products, but I might switch over someday. Our cellular provider just got iPhones this week, and we did look at them, but we might go with Android instead when it's time to switch!

We had quite a day yesterday! First of all, we were driving to work in the morning and got stuck behing some traffic. I was watching in the side mirror as the car behind us tried to change lanes, and changed lanes right into the side of a city bus that was coming up quite quickly beside us! The bumper exploded and flew forward, hitting our car. Scott stopped and checked, but luckily there was no damage to us.

Last night, Scott had overtime work to do at home, and he thought it would take until about 2 a.m. to have it finished. I fell asleep on the couch downstairs and went up to bed around 9:30. Since he couldn't WATCH the hockey game (his team, Vancouver, is in the playoffs), he had it turned up loud on the stereo upstairs. I couldn't sleep through that anyway, so I flipped through a magazine in bed. All of a sudden I heard what sounded like power surges.. loud electrical buzzing. My lamp started flickering and going out. The sound kept happening. Scott yelled at me to come look, so I found my way up to the top floor (in the pitch black, even the streetlights were out!) and we saw huge sparks on top of a power pole at the end of the street. It was surging too, on and off, and it was so bright! Sparks were flying about 10 feet in the air and there was fire at the base. It was really crazy to see! I called my dad (he's a lineman for the provincial power company) and he said it was probably a substation blown from faulty or old wiring, and they'd probably be sending a crew to fix it and we'd have power back in the morning. Well, we had power back in the morning! But Scott didn't get his work done. Oh well! His company is a bit more lenient than mine with those issues!
