Can a PC and Mac connect via firewire? I have video on a G4 that I need to burn onto a DVD that is inside my PC. All the hard drives on the PC are full and I can not delete this data. So what I'm asking is has anyone does this? pull video off a MAC onto a PC DVD burner? did it work?

short answer: no.
you can get a firewire drive and move info that way...but networks are too slow to burn info through. that, and mac/pc lans are a little difficult to set up correctly.

Can you start the mac up in targeted mode? Try holding down the "T" key on the keyboard while starting it up. If it works you should be able to see a Firewire icon screensaver. This basically turns your Mac into a firewire drive. I think you can even have a CD show up as a firewire device. I do this all the time with my PowerBook.
