 Will do - must admit I haven't actually done any searching yet, rather busy with other stuff. But I am hopeful of finding proof for my theory that a lot more stuff is going to get ported for Mac now that its OS is UNIX based.

Re: Gmail hard drive
Nice that there is a Windows version out there for using Gmail as a harddrive. Trouble is, I heard that Gmail were trying to recode their ed to prevent this kind of thing.
Have you heard anything about that Richard M?
Actually, is doing this against Gmail's TOS? I might use it, but I wouldn't store anything sensitive, or remotely questionable. They surely know who is using it as a FS because they ahve use 800mb in a few weeks

I just read it all & this is not against it, unless what you are storing there is against someone elses intellectual rights. (copyright protection etc).
Unlsee someone knows different.

Re: Gmail hard drive

Re: Gmail hard drive
Hmm, apparently gmail has a problem with .ZIP files.
Also, when installed at home, although it may be connecing, I see nothing in my gmail drive & files put in there are not appearing?
Any suggestions?

Re: Gmail hard drive
Yep, your files should still be there as they are stored on your gmail account and will be accessible again when you have finished reloading your software and installing the necessary extensions to access them again
