Urgent noob questions?

[Empgamer]

Thanks. Forgot to add, the haste is due to fact that I fly out to UAE on 28th.

Rather than risk post and Amazon (albeit they or normally very good) I think I might hit the Mac shop in Regent St and hope the have a sale on on 27th. Or even risk Dixons at the Airport for Duty Free. If push comes to shove I can try to get in the UAE but I find tech stuff there more expensive than the UK and a few 'models' behind in spec.

I quite like the look of the pocket drives. I may actually not end up using Time Machine much, if it all. Might just back up what I need on a spare partition. I can look at doing that once I have it. Just wanted to make sure I didn't buy the wrong thing as I only thought about this today. Last minute rush.

Either the Iomega eGo 250 GB:
