Combating functional illiteracy with latex-clad drama since the '80s, because old video games rule!

At least until you knock it off the desk, and it hits the floor while it's powered up and running.

I uploaded a couple small files early last month to try it out so I met the "loyalty" requirement. I would have been happy with the default 7gb.

Hah! I didn't pay attention to the fact that I even HAD a skydrive account, but I started using the mobile OneNote app to keep notes in sync between my iPhone, new iPad, and Galaxy S II (Android). I guess it uses the skydrive as the main storage point, so I had a grand total of 6.4kb uploaded. I now have 25GB of space

Not if you can do math new [Re: Bekki Doll]

The profit percentage of 25GB for free is literally infinite, compared for whatever you paid for your HDD. That's not even considering the backups and what not that are done in the background that give you more security than your solution, and you don't pay for the extra security either.

If the skydrive cost $0.01 however, it would only be more than 2,550,000 times more cost effective per megabyte (assuming a roughly $150 price on your drive, which is probably low). Yea, go with your solution
