The My Book is a nice external hard drive. I have purchased two in recent months. This particular model is nice for its higher capacity though USB-only connections will be slow for most people. I use this drive as the backup drive for Time Machine on my Mac. They have a low, quiet profile and seem fairly discreet in terms of look and even noise so I would definitely recommend. If you can spring for the model that has FireWire - go for it since it's much faster.
I have another My Book (320 GB) which sports both FireWire and USB. Though it uses an external AC adapter as well so it's not nearly as portable.
Adobe Photoshop CS3

Adobe Photoshop CS3 is the newest in the long line of Photoshop products. Technically version 10.0 it sports an enhanced and tidier interface along with more specific workspace settings built for different workflows (such as web - print - etc). I love this and use it everyday.

My girlfriend got this card for her Sony Cybershot camera awhile back and it has server it's purpose but it seems to require formatting every so often to keep from corrupting the photos or videos that are taken. I was attracted to the Memory Stick Pro format because of the versatility. My phone uses this also and when trying to swap out the memory stick between her camera and my phone I got a read error several times before finally working. Perhaps she just got a back memory stick but I would be nervous about getting anything else from Lexar.
