Odd daisy chaining!

In a last ditch attempt to fix my Leopard install issue, I was going to connect my iMac TFT to my PowerBook G4 via firewire target disk mode, and see if, by chance, it would also mount the Install DVD in the iMac's tray (of course it doesn't).

What is does do, though, is create a firewire daisy chain through my iMac, and my iSight, which is connected to my iMac, appears to my PowerBook!

That was rather unexpected...
