jebus, dual layer burning blows

[JAXvillain]

freakin' 30 minutes to burn 6gig on a 8.5gig dual layer dvd?
I have to back up 58gig broken into 2gig chunks...twice

 

[Bubbles]

huh?

 

[smileynev]

Woah. Remember back in the day when it took that long to burn CDs?

 

[zengirl]

I remember when I had to wait that long to download a .wav file from AOL

 

[theacoustician]

That's burning at least at 4x. What exactly did you expect?

And what the hell is 58 gigs that you have to backup? Why would you be using DVD-DL for that?

WAW is doing work? I didn't know he had a job there?

 

[zengirl]

And we thought it was fast.

remember when that big blue bar would start going and if you could actually see it move you thought you had super mega fast speed? Although, even though I went out and bought the 56k modem, I never actually got a 56k connection.

I didn't know I was supposed to work either

I would hardly call burning DVDs and swapping discs as work for you. Don't you have a helpdesk monkey to do such things for you?
