CD burning

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Spent my lunch hour trying to find the best way to do this for Angela (It’s the top post about sharing a CD burner, her permalinks aren’t working again. The free version of blogger is having an awful time of it right now…) You can see what I came up with in her comments.

The biggest problem seems to be that most CD burning software doesn’t have an option for burning to a remote drive. So there’s no way for you to install the burning software locally and burn remotely, nor can you burn remotely without the software. Of course, maybe that’s because there’s so many other complications in burning to a remote machine that no one really bothered to include the option?

Personally I’ve never really thought about it before, simply because you would still have to interrupt the person working on that PC just to have them put a disc in!

    OK here’s the deal. Yesterday, one of the subscription news sites that someone here subscribes to changed the format of their site. This person could no longer log in. They claimed that she must have cookies turned off and that was why. She came screaming to me about turning her cookies off, which I never…

    Well it’s now 9AM on March 7, 2002. This site has been dead in the water since 4:30PM March 6. I don’t know when it will be back, as the email isn’t working either, including the email for the company who’s hosting it. I’ve frankly had it with That Hosting Company. Stuff like this happens…
