I wish they would have given you more of a voice. It seems as though their "objectivity" was tainted. Hmm..the Daily Iowan? Objectivity tainted? NEVER! :-( blargh. Hence why I am no longer a journalism major. *sigh* Have fun in Seattle! I'm sure you'll have more fun than any of those kids with condoms! I don’t think they portrayed you very well.

You are right about the potential of the Flash Drive. I'm sure a great many persons know how much more computer "stuff" can be accomplished with one of these items. They are ubiquitous because when there is a sale on them they are gone quickly. And then perhaps people lose them before they actually use them much. I applaud this heralding of the flash drive.
