[QuadList] at last! archival storage? 1000 years....

[C. Park Seward]

Looks promising. The disks wil sell for $3 and the drives will be about the same as current burners, according to press accounts.

Now, what do you put on them? Uncompressed? Quicktime? The first disks will only hold 4.2 GB. the 25 and 50 are a ways off.

The technology uses laser-etching technology to engrave data into a disc so that it will not fade. The discs are comparable to standard DVDs, and offer 4.7GB
