ggdad1951 Posted November 22, 2013 Report Posted November 22, 2013 Hank: I started and continue to store photos on my computer. My daughter and grandchildren have suggested that I use Photo Bucket, but you can't teach an old dog new tricks (at least not this one). I built the shop after I retired in 1998, and have restored 5 Massey Harris antique tractors and my son's '49 CJ3A Jeep (photos attached) in my shop. Since I am beginning to reduce my inventory, I sold 4 of the Masseys and all my farm equipment after I quit farming last winter. Thus, my only current project is the '51 B3C and it is the most challenging project I have worked. Nevertheless, I am having a ball (most days).

She actually bought a Toshiba gismo (I don't really know what it is) for me, and stores my photo albums on a regular basis. When she comes over this weekend I will have her show me how to use it. You just might be able to tell that I am somewhat of a computer dufus. Barry Quote
Young Ed Posted November 22, 2013 Report Posted November 22, 2013 That is probably a USB external harddrive and if so is a great way to backup stuff. Mark is dead on about the hard drive crashing. Beyond that there is a nasty virus around lately where they encrypt your my docs folder unless you pay $$$. Quote
