You know, the kind where you still have 8579 unread emails - but don't want to unsubscribe, because every couple of months there's a good highly technical flame-fest that you actually learn a thing or two from. :) I usually spend the largest part of my long-haul flights catching up on mailing lists.

Never mind the crypto-legality of doing such a thing in certain jurisdictions, but it seems to me that your hard disk will be in operation, anyway, so why use both it and the optical drive when you can instead just use the one?
