The one mdf image ur calling is actually a mini image of alcohol it is supposed to show is is 1.67Gb.But actually it is not(it doesnot contain any data).Its not due to compression.It is illegal to make mini images.KGB archiver can compress a 2Gb to 2Mb But takes days to do it Unless u have vast memory With vast i really meant vaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast.

Well what u said is rght but i dnt understand anything what u said

@ rakesh the mdf images store only the file structures not the entire data...

and u can try kgbarchiver n 7zip for better compression....

the 257 MB of GTA VC which u have seen is called ripped version of original vice city which are illegal........ in ripped versions many things are missing for example the cutscenes, backgrond music, startup videos etc, that is why their size becomes very small after compression.

One confusion sir!
Does that mean that use of KGB archeiver is Illegal???
(I feel no, but still will be satisfied if you will tell me!)
Thank You!

@go_gamez - Thats awesome man! Read newspapers, Tablet PCs are ultra portable light weight PCs. They aint got to be folded like lappies and are just like a drawing pad.

@led_shankar - I dont see why not, but the app must support the os maybe ?

Not knowing it, well they aint really popular though. Toshiba has the best ones out there I heard, its only for the platinum rich ;)

*en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tablet_PC Some good model pics there... Linux too :D

@go_gamez: A tablet PC (the wikipedia article has a pic of the exact same model as the one i'm using, rofl) looks like a notebook, but it has a pen-like stylus with which you can scribble on the display surface; and it will read input from this stylus. I think Digit had a 'whatever happened to' article on the Tablet PC sometime back.

Now, before anyone starts calling me 'ameer baap ka bigda hua ladka', bear in mind that I do not OWN it, but it's from my Mother's office, rented for a temporary period only.

@QwertyManiac (It's so much fun typing your nickname :D) : I asked that because I read that KGB takes a lot of resources, and that Tablets are strained for resources. THANKS though :)

@go_gamez: ref. qwertymaniac's nickname. You must be knowing what maniac is. now look at the first six letter keys in the topmost alphabet row of your keyboard...that explains the first part.
