This makes: 7.5 years * 360 days/year * 24 hours/day = 64800 hours. How to confirm 200000 hours? We have to wait still 15 and a half year. Or buy 200000 disks and wait one hour ? ;-) -- Bruno ===================================================== # Dr. Bruno Weikl # # Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Institut fuer Lasertechnik# # Steinbachstr. 15, D-5100 Aachen, Germany # # InterNet : weikl@ilt.fhg.de # # Phone : +49/241/8906-134, -0, # # Fax : +49/241/8906-121 # # Telex : 832267 fhilt d # ====================================================#
