I apologize for the spam, but I had to share.
So my dad comes running into my room and says, "Hey, you know that black thing on the back of your computer that isn't attached to anything?" Me: "Yeah." Dad: "Take if off and plug it into the front. You can save stuff on it! It's like a floppy disk!" Me: "You mean it's a USB drive?" Dad: "No, it's like a floppy disk!" (He understands things only after they're obsolete.)
And sure enough, it's got the little USB icon on it and it's labeled 16 MB. So I've had 16 MB of storage plugged into a random port on the back of my modem for two years.
It is time to move stuff.
