Dude!
Heh... anyhoo... Staples has a cool cool sale on the SD cards. Yep, right here:

Well, that's one of them that's on sale, anyway. That's the standard 2 gigabyte model. It should work with my Canon a520 4MB cam. It'll also be great for the ReadyBoost feature in Windows Vista. Not that I need to do that now, but wow... I could run up to 6 gigs of RAM on my laptop. That would be great for working on large photos and maybe texture caching for 3d apps. Well, I'd need a faster SD card for 3d... and of course, I could load a Linux distro in there, too, to run in other USB/SD bootable PC's! Cool!
Looks like a long walk is in order, if I can swing one, over to the local Staples. Hmm. Or, be a lazy @$$ and burn a few carbons (but gas prices are really SUCKING sH** now 8-P). Let's see. 8-)
Lunch. Time.
HUZZAH!
