Is ot possible to link a Powerbook with a Wintel laptop via a Firewire or USB2.0 cable? And if so, what do you then do to connect the two and read each other's hard drives?

Thanks.

Just use a standard network cable much easier.

Or if the PB has airport and the laptop a wifi card, you can set up a wifi network and share files that way.
