I backed up all my photos on 3 hard drives as well as CDs, and memory sticks too. I have an external hard drive,connected through the USB port,but the photos will be too big to post on here. My photo editor is on my desktop. Saves you lot getting bored with my postings though wont it? Lol. Thanks for you concern and good luck messages guy's.

My daughter-in-laws cousin, they own an comptuer business of their own here in town also. That's how we got this one. An used one for "free"..its been specially modified for the grandkids by them...she's still had to put money in it though from my troll. They went to an lap top. My grand-daughter wants her own lap top but I think it's several years down the line yet due to her age. It's fustrating to have so much money into something someone can "takeout" in an whim, or it goes out on an whim of it's own. HIghest paid item of "luxury" in the house for most of us. People are either into them, and can fix them themselves or "scammed" to death by not knowing what to do and what you really need and don't need on them...and people like my troll. Good luck. |
