All the pictures themselves are stored on a server, although if she is
taking the notebook with her to work on, she will need to copy the ones
she expects to use.  If need be, I could add on a 2.5" USB drive,
although I certainly wouldn't want her to have to run the VM off such a
drive. 

Since you mentioned it again, I went to look at the directions for doing
an HD, and it looks a lot simpler than I thought it was, so I guess I'll
do an HD upgrade as well.
