Do you have hunderds of slides that have not seen the light of day in years?

[Jerry]

I do.  In fact maybe 1000 !
I ordered a neat device from Costco for 99,00
It will copy slides and negatives.  The reviews were good. No I don't have any relationship with Costco.

[Esther]

Um copy them? You mean put them on prints? Is there a way to scan them and put them on a CD or on the computer?

[Jerry]

There is a flash card. It looks easy enough for me to do.  I did order it. Costoc has a demo video.
Spoke to my Daughter, she was about to order it for me!

[Joyce]

That looks cool Jerry!

I read about that gadget.  Some are not particularly happy with the quality of the prints yet others love it.  Please let me know how well it works for you.  I sure have lots of slides I would love to get printed.

I'm confused now, too.  Does it digitize them into a jpeg or better, or does it just print.  You said it takes a flash drive, but is that to print something off the drive?  I have been looking for something that will digitize slides directly to a computer, and this one is in the price range that I would like.

I understand one can put the card directly into the computer.  I should have it in a few days. I will report.

Annette: I sure will.  The reviews were good.

[miguynmkoi]

I think it's slides to memory card in the machine.  Then insert the memory card into computer or printer to print.

[Jerry]

Yeah thats it!  I an an analog guy trapped in a digital world!

[Esther]

OK, now I get it.

[Jerry]

It will arrive tomorrow!
I am darn busy, but will get at it as soon as possible.
Anyone need a Kodak Carousel projector?

Slides... sheesh. I still remember the 8mm film camera where we had to set a screen up to view jumpy home movies. Even at school the reel would hang up and the film would melt right before your eyes. I remember not wanting to go anywhere on one night because we didn't want to miss Battlestar Galactica and there were no VCR tapes or machines. Eight tracks, it's a wonder even worked at all.

They keep finding new and better ways to sell us our old music and we keep having to switch formats. It's a good thing computers haven't figured out sex or we would all be out of business.

Nah Jerry, you are a classic now, not obsolete. Men mature like a fine wine. We don't actually loose our hair, it just gets lost and redirected. It starts growing out of our ears and off of the end of our nose. It wasn't there before so this is the only explanation that I can think of. Another comforting thought is that a man's ears and nose continues to grow so if we live long enough one day we will look like a cross between a giant South American Fruit Bat and an baboon. This is to keep us from getting conceited because we are so wise.

I never believed my post for a minute.
I have one of those battery operated nose hair remover gadgets.
I use an Apricot scrub in my face.
My shower soap has "Face" on one side "Ass" on other (Johnson & Smith)
Today at the club I helped one NBA guy improve his free throw shooting. He never knew how to stand in the exact spot every time.  I learned from Calvin Murphy and John Wooden.
This was in the 80s, me and the great man.
