Okay guys,
I remember this was covered in the pass before but I can't find the thread.
I need to transfer a bunch of files from Powerbook to iBook. So I remember you guys said there is a way to turn the Powerbook into an "External HD" by holding down C ?
Now when I do turn it into an External HD, which kind of cable should I be connecting it with? A USB? Or a Firewire?
Thanks.

Connect both machines via FireWire cable. Reboot one of them and hold down the T key at boot. The disk of the one you rebooted will appear as a FireWire HD on the others desktop. Drag it to the trash when you are done, reboot the one you held down the T key on and unhook the cable. You're done.
