Thats what I was trying to get at is that electronic data is not dependent upon a single media type. I have documents that came from 5.25 Commodore 64 floppy disks from the 80's, were converted to something on the Amiga in the early 90's then word perfect the old versions of MS word up to current in OpenOffice.

Starting with a digital copy makes edits and changes easier since you don't have to redo a whole page,just make the edit and reprint.

Something that might be worth adding that i do this time of year is a current credit report. You may need to rent/buy a new place to live for say a NOLA situation and walking in and saying you don't know if your credit is good or walking in and saying your credit score is 775 will get a very different response. Even if you don't need/want any credit remember things like insurance rates are tied to the credit score or you may want to insure no one else is using your credit.
