I'm still watching them slowly im still watching joel still haven't gotten to mike yet altho i did watch the mst3k movie

It be great if they could start up a show like that again

They did, it's called RiffTrax. You DL a rifftrack for a DVD you have and play the dvd on your computer with their special player that syncs the rifftrack audio with the dvd movie. It is only audio, but still fun. They had to go this route as they didn't have any money to buy the rights to actual movies to show as a video, on a plus side tho, most of the movies are recent ones)

Now thats pretty cool altho it's abit sad you don't get the overlay of the guys but it could easily be done in VLC and just load the dvd in VLC and overlay a video ontop.

Yeah, I DO miss MST3k's style, but try it out. Do what I did, torrent the video+rifftrack and just donate to them. (Yep, I actually DID donate money to RiffTrax! I am not kidding. I have the printed page to prove it too!)

Regardless, it is still fun. Just either purchase the riffs or torrent then and then throw 20 or 40 bucks their way after you have a good number of them (their donate page even suggests that many riffers got their rifftrax from "the internet", and asks that you throw them a bone so they can make more).

Space 1999 and UFO is currently on TV over here on ITV4 in the UK, but I'm sure you can get them on Video via ebay.

I buy 640GB drives that give me 500gb formatted and they seem to fill up.  The problem is getting your mind organised instead of just dumping and getting duplicates.

I consolidated my music archive and found I have 3 dupes to each track.  I have more space now. 

I have an Airlink 350 NAS drive that has a 400gb drive and two Buffalo Drive stations in read only NTFS format for music and films.  I'm cringing on the day I have to move them to another drive for backup.

Maybe then we will see those 100 TB bacteria hard drives I keep hearing about on Wired.   

I just backed up my DVD archive as I was getting rot on some of the verbatim stock.  Took me two weeks of DV archive disc swapping to fill a 500GB drive.  I hate to think of the cost of the duff DVDs.

I lol'ed at the MFM drives.  I had two MFM full heights and a RLL full height drive in my old XT.  It took me weeks to daisy chain the two MFMs on one card. 

Now I'm looking at a 4gb micro SD no bigger than my pinky nail.......
