What do you want to store on it Kimmy ? If its only docs and pictures then a 4gig will be fine if doing file transfers i would go for a larger one but only to save time doing it in big chunks I have several around the house ranging from 512MB up to 4gig the 512MB has docs on it have a 2gig with photos on that goes in a digital photo frame and a 4gig that has videos on from digicam that also plays on the digital photo frame
I remember paying around £25 for the 512MB one many years ago when it was all new So these days the 4gig at £9.99 you cant grumble at and i would guess that this size may be ideal for you
Cheers Trebor

Yes you can, basically it works just like a mini Hard Drive When you plug it in to your USB port windows will pick it up install the driver if needed if you then click on My computer you will see it show up in Devices with removable storage Double click to open it up and just drag drop or copy and paste whatever you want onto it Once you have done so and finished with it look bottom right for the USB icon right click and select safely remove device The idea behind this is to stop Data loss in case its still transferring between your computer and the USB flash drive
The next time you plug it in Windows will pick it up and if Auto run isn`t on will ask you what do you want to do ie open in folder view then just carry on adding docs and pics or amending said docs, word excel
Cheers Trebor
P.S if you decide on one I'm in the shop Saturday so i`ll get it in the post that morning

If you lose your Bookmarks in Firefox.
At the top of the Firefox window there should be a menu bar with a Bookmarks item, along with other menu items (File, Edit, View, etc.). On Windows, starting in Firefox 3.6, the menu bar can be hidden. If the menu bar is missing, press and release the "Alt" key to temporarily restore it. If you always want to show the menu bar, click "View -> Toolbars" and select "Menu Bar".
