[Moodle] Moodle day..I'm in!

Wed Jan 23 13:58:23 EST 2008

Say Kent .. here is a suggestion.

Get yourself an 80 or 120 Gb laptop HDD. Takes less than a min to
install and it can even be dual booted with the DET image on a 40 Gb
partition. I use one as a transport drive. You can have oodles more
room and fun with the rest. At the end of the lease, just pop the old
hdd back in before you return it. An old laptop HDD can even be
recycled as an external USB2 drive so you will get your use out of it
for a very long time. On the other hand, you can have fun building a
virtual computer that can run on your Windows partition .. even
perhaps running and storing this on a transport drive. Fun fun fun!

Regards Roland
