I'm not down on the technical limitations for putting this into practice, but I'd say a PCI card or something with loads of SD-slots on it would've been interesting; so that you could combine their storage capacity, and make all of them appear as one drive, and so have all the card's capacities rolled into one drive.
I'm thinking something like a virtual file-allocation-table, that is being created from each card's content at boot-up, (either a battery-backed ram chip on-card, that sorts it out based on what is on there, _OR_, a separate SD card functioning as "/" in regards of summing up how files are allocated, and that master-card could be four times the required space, so as to swap FAT-placement to lessen wearage..) -Each sub-card should perhaps have their share of the allocation table, but I don't know.

Agreed.
Agreed, nice points.
We have.
Yeah, *Gutsy* humour is the way to go now; -Feisty-, at the very least.

Ok. -All will be fine then. :)

Great post.
Heh, that last cent part was really good; real nice, man. -Will go down as a classic..
(..Umhh, wouldn't happen to have a spare cent, btw?..)
If everyone knew what was going on, they'd've switched to Mac already.
Nice one, Joe ;)
Bullshit; linux ain't *shit*. (..And you know it..)

Surely fun, if not practical..
Yeah, the intro wouldn't even fit onto a N-64 cartridge, though. (AFAIK; judging from the n64 ROM d/l sizes..)
;)
I liked the jagged gfx in FF7, so I don't really care..
