Get a bigger external hd.  Lacie makes a portable USB drive that's 80GB and inexpensive.  I have that plus a 40GB, 120GB, and 250GB for various large project storage.  I also burn DVDs exclusively (what are these 'CD' thingies people keep talking about?). ;)  The ONLY time that I EVER write a CD is when it is an application ISO (say, Carrara 5 Pro download disc).

adp001 is absolutely correct.  Watch making those 2GB zip files containing thousands of files - one error equals all lost.  Better to just extend storage - I mean there are 400GB drives out there already - external even (for about $250 - a steal if you ask me).

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
