     Ever since I restored this laptop to WinXP, I've kept all data plus 
software backups on an external USB drive.  The little enclosure for it cost 
less than $5 on eBay, such as #221057529010.  The larger ones for 3.5" IDE 
devices are nice for using a full-size CDROM/DVD drive when making copies.
