Look for a big listing of jump drives on eBay in the coming weeks.

It wouldn't surprise me if the address belongs to Skimmers sister's .

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

****in SERIOUSLY???  Are they insane?

A 16GB flash drive goes for under $20.  I remember when a box of 5 1/4 floppies went for more than double that in the mid-80's.

I have some floppy disks around, but no floppy drive.  I still have my first thumb drive that my wife had bought me for Christmas when they first came.  A 256MB thumb drive that cost almost $80.  :loser:

11. I personally found them the neatest thing since sliced bread.
 We use them a lot here at the house for sharing movies and music and etc.
Plus backup storage of vital info.
Now I have no idea how I lived without a bunch of these.
 

Damn these filthy rotten corporations for providing useful products and services!  Damn them all to hell!!!!
