doh thanks for catching me on that.. havnt fully woken up yet
So I now need a firewire 400 and an adapter. I might just opt to make an Ad Hoc network and send my data over through airport or ethernet. (I heard connecting computers by USB is dangerous)

As far as I know, connecting computers via USB isn't possible. USB is a standard connection method for peripherals, whereas FireWire is for both peripherals and communications/networking of sorts.

Got a chance to see the new MB and MB Pro in person at the Apple Store and they are really slick. First time in a long time I have been tempted to purchase on impulse.

The trackpad is awesome and does just seem to work great. I love the 4 finger mode of expose/hide windows. Very slick.
