Hi Folks! This weekend I plan to begin transferring all of the Poser materials I've stored on my hard drive and storage disks to my newly acquired PowerBook G3 laptop. I want to create a CD archive of all the free props and morphs I've downloaded over the years. My sales contact at MicroCenter suggested I buy "one-way" CDs rather than the CD-RW disks because the reusable ones only have a shelf life of 1-2 years before data loss sets in (?). Anyone else heard of this? How are the old CDs you've burned holding up? I'd appreciate any answers y'all have, because once I burn the disks I'm going to erase the duplicate files from my Jaz and Zip disks. Peter (Dr Zik)
