Solve : Mini CDs? |
|
Answer» I have a homework questions regarding mini CDs and am looking for a site that discusses them, not just trying to sell them. I have already tried searching with not much luck. Does anyone have a suggestion or can tell me a little about them? They are small and only hold 50-60 megs. of data. They are very shiny! I know you're not so fond of us college students asking questions, but I am not the type to just ask questions without trying to find the answers first. I actually enjoy the learning process. Because of your not so friendly comments to me yesterday, I chose not to put a specific question on here, and I just asked how to find info on them elsewhere. I have to define and describe mini CDs, tell their storage capacities, and tell if mini CD-Rs and CD-RWs are available. I cannot ask my prof for help this week because I am taking the class online and she is not available until Thursday, when the assignment is due. I spent a 2 miinute google search (www.google.com)and then entered the term "what is mini cd" and got this choice among others http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mini_CD You can't go wrong with a Wiki. And Google lessons are FREE on Tuesdays and Thursdays. You DID come to the right place after all!. 80mm MiniCDs originally concieved by Sony I believe, can hold up to 202 MB of data. I have some made by Imation I haven't seen or heard of any which are rewritable. See also 'Business card' CDs. E.G. "Imation Mini (80mm) CD-R Media Small Size, Big Impact.

Did the same exercise and got to the same page with a simple 'what is mini CD' on Google as you suggested. I'll bear Wikipedia in mind for the future. Quote I know you're not so fond of us college students asking questions... No. Not if you state the fact "up front" or not try to hide it as others do. I've seen the mini-CD's used as business cards, called "CD business cards". They come in many different shapes and are quite expensive. Quote
You can even add your knowledge and expertise to the Wikipedia as well Mac! That is the beauty of it. It grows constantly. Quote Because of your not so friendly comments to me yesterday, I chose not to put a specific question on here, and I just asked how to find info on them elsewhere. And you got exactly what you were looking for then, right? A link to more information was posted. Please PICK up your exam from Professor Raptor. |
