And I have made quite a few coffee-cup-coasters, too. Now I use
rewritable media (both CD's and DVD's) for working with -current.) In
the case of CD's, I make sure that they stay below the 700 MB limit.
(With the DVD's, *total* -current fits nicely at about 3 Gigs, leaving
about 1.5 Gigs Plus space.)
