I simply go to my awesome collection of hardware, pull out the machine, find and sort out all the media for that machine. Whip up a quick serial to usb hardware connector for said system. Then dump an image of the media onto my pc.

After that its just a simple job of naming, sorting into folders, uploading to site, making new area for system in database, uploading picture and any required text and hey presto a new section.

Doing 7 last night was exhausting :eh:
