Hi guys

This Problem isnt for me -im trying to help out somebody.

They have this laptop
TravelMate 506T System Specs
And want to but a portable memory device so they can transfere things such as word documents essays or powerpoint presentations to uni from home. Would something like this be ok? ebuyer.com - Components » Flash Memory » USB Flash Drives » Product details
If so is it compatible with the laptop? Cheers

Although the stick is USB 2.0 - it will be backwards compatible with the USB 1.1 input you have on that laptop.
