estimating time

[Listener]

What they don't tell you about superfast DVD burners is that when you're trying to put 2000 images on a DVD for archival purposes, it takes FOREVER to estimate the time remaining before it even starts burning.  *grumble*

(just grumping)

Why bother with the estimating time part?

[Mr. Ubiquity]

with 2,000 porno pics, you should be sufficiently distracted to not worry about the time. There are other tasks at hand, so to speak, that are more pressing.

I burned about 600 pics to a cd yesterday and it took about 3 minutes.  You etching that DVD by hand?

The burning process only took about five minutes.  It was the ESTIMATING process that took 20.
