...one comment from Ol'Europe ...

Well, time of spinnin' disks (FD,HD,CD,DVD whatever) in information
technology is near its end ---> sooner ot later we'll have the time of
memory chips (flash proms whatever) even for archival usage --> but the
problems with system compatibility will remain (CF, SM, SD, MS etc.)

So I see the only way to keep information for the future is to spread it
widely on the web and --> paper.

Marcel
