- about the background copier, however, since I don't have really "critical"
- files stashed on my hard drives, so I use the backgrounder to it's

- that copying speed isn't nearly as important anymore since it's being done
- in the background), I've been able to get things done without feeling the
- copying much, instead of waiting for the copy to finish.
