I still have the digital photos that I took 25 years ago with a Computerose Eyes card in my apple II. And they're as good as they were the day I shot them. I suspect those pics will still be visible in another quarter century, along with all the pics I'm taking now. On the other hand, many of my prints and negs from 25 years ago have been lost or damaged. Paul On Jul 2, 2006, at 2:53 PM, Jens Bladt wrote:
