So many files, so few files.



Ah, there's so much critical information in the world that we need
at our fingertips. One simply can't rely on finding it on the net,
or depending on a manufacturer to keep the files available, so one
really has to keep copies in one's own computer(s), right?

So many files. Whew, take my Keithley instrument folder: 396 files
in 70 folders taking 532MB of space. But so few files, and so much
critical missing information.

Take my Agilent HP folders. Instruments: 725 files in 110 folders,
1043MB total, but really sadly lacking in the stuff I really need.
Agilent semiconductors: 343 files, 86MB, but so few files; I really
know I'm in trouble now that ownership has changed. That's usually
when the website gets re-designed and the old stuff goes away. :-(
It's probably still on their web-server computers, but the links to
find it are broken.

Sad, so sad. Well, so little time, better go get some more files.
