More expensive?
Well, yes. I do split my internet with a friend who doesn't have decent broadband. We both host personal servers on my account.
But it's not a TON more for much faster service and the 5 static IPs.
But, yeah. More $$.

I should get that tattooed across my chest... It's a shame I already have a giant "Baseball" tattoo. It's just a bat with a couple of baseballs at the bottom.
You have a dick tattoo on your chest?

Still waiting for W7 disc to get here via snail mail. And is twitter a 60MPH chat room, or is it just me???
Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on again?
I'm not using the CD/DVDRW drive, I'm using an external 2TB hard drive that plugs into a USB port. Seems like the procedure would be a little different? I'd like to hear more about this imaging thing, homercidal?!
There's tons of them online. I haven't used one in a while so I'm not sure what's easy to use.
Basically you load this software and it writes a compressed image of whatever you choose (drive or partition) to a file on a disk somewhere (Probably your USB drive, although I would consider a USB stick if you keep your data files on the USB drive)
When you need to recover you boot to the stick (or a separate CD, depending on what your motherboard BIOS will allow) and start the recovery program. You then tell it which file has the backup you want to restore, and you point it where you want it to restore to. Come back in a short bit and your system is ready to reboot and use.
This is why I also highly recommend keeping the Operating System and Applications separate from you data. You can safely restore the OS with the apps you want, and not lose any data when you recover.
