Internet Cafe with a CD burner?

Cardon - 1-13-2006 at 04:30 PM

I'll be spending the month of February in the southern part of Baja and assume I'll run out of digital film. Does anyone know of an internet cafe that has a computer with a cd burner so I can copy my pics to cd and then clear off my film cards. Or is there a kind BajaNomad that lives down there that would let me use their computer? Thanks,Craig

it would be hard to find on that doesnt have that service.

Bruce is right. All the internet cafe's that I visited from Ensenada to Cabo had the equipment, including the one down the street from Bruce in Mulege and next door to Ole Cafe in Loreto.

For much the same purpose, I just bought a 20GB external hard drive that directly accepts all types of digital media, including compact flash cards. It is tiny (4"x2.5"x3/4"), USB connection to your computer for uploading when you get back. It will set you back about $200.

Amen to That !

With storage media so incredibly cheap now, why would you want to depend on someone else's equipment, especially that in Mexico ?

For years we have been using an external 40GB hard drive for image storage while traveling. It's so easy and convenient to use - and it's nice not to have to factor internet cafe stops into our vacation.
