Default beginer LS1 edit ?'s - just to be on the safe side.

when i do my first read of the PCM, will i be able to drive the car if i dont do a program after. i want to go ahead and do a read, play with it for a couple of days (of course i will save an OEM master first and hide it) before i install the new settings (EGR, fans, rear gears, C.A.G.S., rear O2's - just simple stuff). will i be able to drive it for those couple of days before i program? i assume the answer is yes, but i want to be sure.
also, any of you guys burn files to a CD for safe keeping instead of to floppy 3 1/2's? any foreseable problems with this?

more questions to follow, stay tuned! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> (just a bad LS1 edit joke!)
