My most treasured possession
What's your most treasured possession? What would you rescue from a fire (be it for sentimental or purely financial reasons)?
My Great-Uncle left me his visitors book which along with boring people like the Queen and Harold Wilson has Spike Milligan's signature in it. It's all loopy.
Either that or my Grandfather's swords.

Exabyte of the stuff? Probably.
I'm one of the techy (no, not tetchy) guys who helps sell this stuff and the same customers that used to buy a few hundred gig of disk a couple of years ago are now buying tens of terabytes. 90% of the time they don't even have a clue what that data is, let alone if it's worth keeping. There is software around to help with the searching/archiving etc. but software doesn't have lots of flashy lights so they're not as interested in that.
