I'd like to do the 2000's equivalent of the 1960's bomb shelter, and have my very own snapshot in case of major local/regional internet disruption, etc. What would be the best way to go about this. I see with <1T words, it appears doable on current technology. Maybe they should offer a snapshot on DVDs or disk as a fundraiser? I'd drop $300 for some sort of officially licenced copy, I suspect there are other freaks that would too... Steve
