Yeah, the USB pens would be more reliable than the old fashioned floppies.

I sell the USB pens to our boys, but only at the price I buy them in. Our problem is that they constantly leave them at their tail ends and other less friendly ones pocket them.

Yeh



I'd be interested if anyone can get them any cheaper too.  Our girls tend to like the ones with a keyring that way they're always with them on their keys and less chance of loosing them, mind you same applies for the teachers.



 :idea: Heh may we could do a deal with a company if we all agreed to buy x amount each they would do us all a deal.  I'll check out my best price so far and get back to yous later.

What size did you get for £10?  Datapac would be out main suppliers and I'll have to kick ass if they don't give us all the same deal :twisted:
