[Panel 1]
[Nils]
That's it! It's done!

[Elizabeth]
Good morning,
Nils. Have you
slept lately?

[Nils]
Never mind that, it's all
up and running and all the
files are copying across.

[Elizabeth]
That's nice. What is it?


[Panel 2]
[Nils]
ONLY ten terabytes of RAIDed
storage in a custom chassis with
dedicated indexing software.

[Elizabeth]
That's nice.
What is it?

[Nils]
The video file server.

[Elizabeth]
That's nice. What is it?

[Nils]
Um...


[Panel 3]
[Nils]
You know how when you want
to watch, oh, Totoro...

[Elizabeth]
Squee!

[Nils]
...again...

...and you need to flip through
the disc cases looking for it?

[Elizabeth]
No. I know just where
everything that interests me is.

[Nils]
And sometimes a disc gets
scratched or just rots?

[Elizabeth]
Well, that's true enough I suppose.


[Panel 4]
[Nils]
Well, no more! It's all
on the big new fileserver.

[Elizabeth]
"The hard drives, in
their racks, growled
their readiness like
hounds straining at
the leash." Or
something like that?

[Nils]
Well, it will be. Just
have to go and change
another couple of DVDs.

See you in about five days...
