DVDs. :laugh2:
Get a 720K formatted DOS floppy disk, and just keep transferring the stuff piece by piece. It's great exercise running back and forth 30 thousand times. ;D

Make sure to 5 1/4" disks - they're more reliable...

I'm sure there would be some way to attach an old tape player from a c64. Imagine actually being able to hear your data transferring!!!
I know you're a young buck, so you may need to look some of these up and look at the capacity/transfer rate to fully appreciate the joke. :)

Haha - I remember the days of the audio cassette - on my Atari 800 computer. Ahh, the memories! I used to love waiting for my Atari magazines, so I could TYPE in the programs, and then save to cassette.
Man, have computers changed...

Yeah, my next purchase is going to be a DVD burner, mostly to back up my music. I plan on backing up all my um "software" with it as well, but I'd have to purchase a DVD drive for my machine as well, which is a bit out of my range. I am going to do what markrvp recommends and use the router.
Sorry for sounding whiny, rough day. I'm just a senseless teenager, remember? :badmood:

http://www.pricewatch.com is your friend - I just bought a NEC dual-layer 16x DVD burner for $43 shipped...

I use a USB2 HDD.

Or check Newegg for the burner. $40 shipped for an excellent drive. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827106256
