Time for another installment of Contesting on a Budget! Thanks in advance
for your inputs, look forwarding to hearing from you.
Topic for the Mar-Apr NCJ: Information Management. Contesting is becoming
an exercise in information management, including creating, transporting,
analyzing and archiving information. What cost-effective means have you
developed for dealing with the plethora of accumulated information that a
typical
contester maintains? How do you deal with the DOS to Windows divide? What
convenient and economical storage media do you use? Look forward to your
responses!
Personal anecdote: 3.5 floppies are not a viable long-term storage media.
I tried transferring some files that were about three years old, and my
laptop FDD would not read them. It took several tries with several different
computers to finally read all the files. I have them stored on a hard drive
now.
