Phillip--

Yes, I've gotten a lot of -50 errors? Any idea what they are?

Adding to the fun, I haven't been able to get the OK for purchase of an
external HD yet, so I'm backing up piecemeal to jaz disks (ugh!). Any advice
on which files are crucial and which can be ignored will be very helpful,
needless to say.

Thanks for your reply.
