STAR WARS COUNTDOWN
Still 183 days to go till Episode One? What do you think of: 6 days to go till Episode one? Yeah, you're reading it right: 6. (six). Thanks to a major administrative error at 20th Century Fox, when we asked for a trailer of The Phantom Menace, we got the whole movie in our postbox. Or rather, the uncut, first version. Many scenes will be shortened and edited before screening, because this version lasts for about 5 and a half hour. As a premiere we will put this unique version of Phantom Menace on our own homepage. In live streaming video. Unfortunately resolution will not be perfect, but we don't want to keep it away for the fans. According to our lawers we're fully in our right, but for, at least a little bit, making sure we're not getting sued by George Lucas, we will only show the movie at one day (the night of wednesday to tuesday from 1:00 am) at: www.veronica.nl. From there you'll be linked to the movie
that's 31st of march and the 1st of april... hmmmm.... --

When you're trying to do that, why don't you just buy a solid state hard drive?
Or if you can't afford that, just use a ramdisk, that will be fast enough as well...

Ok, cdrom.com had the record around december 24th or something 1998, 820 GB in one single day.
I can't recall what the Microsoft record was.
