After years on this machine, I have so much design and music related shit I have to move over to my Dualie when it arrives tommorow. Problem: I have only a CD burner on this old PC of mine and I have about 20 gigs worth of shit I have to move over. Anybody know the quickest, cheapest, most efficient route here? Thanks much!

Maybe just network them together???
I think OSX can read FAT32, so maybe you could open your mac and just connect the PC drive for transfer???

you don't have to worry about music in terms of .wav files they work fine on Mac.

pull the hard drive out and plug it in the Mac? (ATA?)

I'm an idiot.
I hadn't thought about moving the hardrive. Shit, that makes sense.

grab a ethernet cable, connect them together, on teh mac finder, go->connect to server. you should see your PC as a mountable volume as long as you have file sharing turned on the PC and windows sharing turned on the mac. that simple.
