Arrrgh. I’m a pack rat when it comes to computer files. I have stuff going back 10-15 years (maybe more). Must… learn… to… let… go….

I used to keep a drawer full of Hard drives, but now I just burn to DVD & break up the old platters with a single jack. The DVD’s are in a locked drawer, and if there were anything really worrisome they’d be in a safety deposit box instead.

Good reminder — this one of my big faults. Have folders labelled “Stuff from X Computer”, “Stuff from Y Computer” — antique files to be organized and reviewed some mythical day when the moon is blue and I have some Copious Spare Time. Need to move them onto CD or the external hard drive. (But at least they take up less space than the boxes of old letters and paper competing for the same someday…)
