Sorry haven't been following this thread so it might've been suggested
already, but my advice would be the same as for someone looking for a SCSI
retrieval method a few months back: get the old machine going, and then
ethernet the data over to your current computer (using a direct link
crossover cable). Shouldn't be any compatibility issues I can think of...
Hope that helps.
