Well, you can make 7 folders on your 4 gig, and watch em manually to not let
em get over 650...

Also, it seems like Retrospect is pretty cool with CDR now (v4.0), so maybe it
has made CDR backup as painless as tape (ie: "Please insert a new recordable
CD. All the remaining data should fit on this CD"), but I prefer drag and drop
restoring myself...
