My second USB memory key in the last 6 months has become corrupt. Half of my files either don’t function (if they are media based) or are completely goobildy-gook (if they are text). The first USB key - at least I suspected - had become corrupt due to the plastic housing on the key breaking. Damm you college computers for having USB ports at the exact same height as my KNEES!

The second USB key has become corrupt, but totally out of the blue! That’s what I get for buying cheap (bargain?) memory, from Hong Kong, on eBay. I wonder how long my 2-week-old 2GB of laptop memory is going to last? *cries*
