The Big DumpTruck

How silly is it to get excited over something like a new CompactFlash card? I ordered two off Amazon last week...one of them was $163 OFF the list price (it's a high-speed 512meg card) and the other is a $10 after rebate (a 128meg card). Don't do the math, you can't just say "why not get 4 of the 128meg cards". It's not the same, when you're talking about not wanting to swap out cards in the middle of something. Plus high speed is good. I don't know that I'd buy a 512 regular speed card. The rate between photos would be slower, and I believe it's also a drain on the batteries.

Anyway, now I have a decent selection of cards, including two useless 8meg cards that we bought like, 8 years ago when we got our first digital camera. I can save about seven pictures on them.
