Okay, I've been very busy at Work and at home with the Kids. I haven't been updating sportmachines as much as I want to.

So I am sending Jimmy everything that is on my hard drive so he can start updating the info to the site.

Adam is going to give Sportmachines.com a face lift.

Opie is going to keep doing everything he does in the background

and

I'm still going to keep collecting info on these trucks. I may actually start working on the registry after Syborg is finished

depending on how large all of these files are we might want to consider a secure online version of this for constant updating. As good as sending a harddrive around the US is, it is sort of inefficient

and its not like a hard drive can't get damaged in transit. How much space (mb / gb) is this taking up? Might be best to just burn some dvds.

How much space are we talking about? I'll donate the space on my server if I have it for the online archive.

That would be a good idea. Have at least a few copies on DVD in a few hands, just to help preserve the info. :tup:

I have about 785 GB free space on my webhost, I could set up with an FTP account for you guys for extra remote backup if you wish.

Re: Passing the Torch - Sportmachines.com

after the HD makes its way to myself and renz, we'll discuss with marty what he wants done with the data... remember some of this stuff might not want to be released to the general public..

but who knows what kind of stuff marty has collected over the years.

Yeah, I was just thinking with the DVD's, it'd would be good if you, Jimmy and Renz had copies of the backups. Computers are finicky and DVD's get lost/scratched/broken. This is important info that definitely needs to be saved, even if it's not distributed. :tup:
