Once upon a time, I also thought I had to write all my own software. And
maintain it. And support it for others.

Then I realised that other people were prepared to write, maintain and support
software for me, and I could get on with other stuff.

Dropbox might be slightly worse than something I could cook up myself, but
then, I don't *have* to cook it up myself.
