storage solution

I think I've just found the answer to my storage problem, without
having to purchase any new hard drives right away.

Known:
* I've got a 220GB drive on Shady, and am currently down to 12GB
available. (AIEEEEE!! That BYTES!!)
* There's a fairly empty drive 200GB+ drive on Raven.
* Raven isn't used much anymore.
* Raven DOES have a firewire port.
* I just discovered firewire networking...

Hehheh... yep, Dale saw me copying off the external hard drive and I
told him I'd finished with it, but still had more on the laptop
because I'd not backed up the past week or so yet. He says, "Why not
just connect the laptop to Shady via Firewire?" Why? WHY?? Because
-- I -- didn't think of that... So I just taught myself how to do
it. It's SO easy on the macs, I'm hoping it'll be somewhat similar
to do in Windows XP... and it's definitely faster than ethernet,
wireless, and even transferring from disk to disk to disk. YAY!!

I LOVE COMPUTERS!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOOO
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And macs are THE awesomest... the fact they can talk to pc's is even
cooler!! Best of both worlds, I say...
