RE: First visit under the barter scheme

["Steve B" <steve@xxxxxxx>]

I have often thought about this to backup my mp3. I would need about
15-20Gb
but unfortunately dont have the same in return at the moment. However it
would be possible for up to a few Gb

Just a thought ...

I know several of us have adsl connections....(sorry Mark;) have any of you
considered complementary back up?

I haven't really needed this up till now but my new business venture would
benefit from it.

Concept would be we make arrangements where x amount of space is available
on each others systems for back up.

It isnt to easy for me to do this right now as I have a NAT
connection...but
I intend changing that in the near future....anyone interested?

Mick
