Hi Jamjar :)

Any particular reason you didn't use the cable?

I wanted a back up copy to the external hard drive. You don't get that with the cable. Using the cable copies it directly to the other computer.

Also, you have the cost of the cable as an extra.

Sorry to hear it, Charlotte.

I don't know anyone who owns one.  ;)

Ah, I've just this minute spoken to an Indian lady, in India, about a credit card enquiry, in Australia.  ;D
