[Hidden-tech] More packrat stuff... files off an ms-dos system?

[Greg Major]

Don't make it so complicated. Get an external drive enclosure from 
Staples (approx. $30.00) and put your old hard disk in it. Then it will 
plug into any machine through the usb port and you will be able to 
access all of the files on the hard disk. Just make sure you get the 
right size enclosure.
