I have an old eMac which i want to sell. There are some very large files on it that i want to move to my macbook. I know i could get a data cable and move them with 'migration assistant' but i would prefer to buy a usb memory stick (as it's something i need anyway) and do it that way. Do you know of one that will work with my eMac? It is still on os x 10.2.8 and i'm having trouble getting one that works on this operating system. Alot of them are only compatible with 10.3 onwards. Can you help?

Boot your eMac in Target Disk mode (if it came with built in Firewire): http://thesalon.blogspot.com/2009/06/turn-your-computer-into-firewire-hard.html
Then your eMac becomes a firewire hard drive and you can move any files you wish to your other computer.
