I don’t! But I did.

Luckily, Columbus has days where you can drive to area parks to recycle electronics and other household items and hazardous chemicals. So, all that stuff went out a few years ago.

Anyone remember SyQuest storage devices??? 44 or 88 megs stored on one bis ass hard disk at a time. Woot!!!

Then came Zip drives…then CD writers/DVDs/thumbdrives.

I can’t think of all the dollars graphic arts has cost me for the “technology” race.

The numbers get bigger, the game remains the same. As a photographer that runs raw files, or even worse HD or HD+ video, I am seemingly stuck in the storage ,backup,full drive,lather,rinse,repeat cycle. Then factor in up to 3 cameras a “workflow” is a burden not a buzzword.

HD= about a gig a minute. Raw camera stills 25 meg each. (And that’s a 5 year old camera)
