[X Newbies] Transferring everything off an iMec to an eMac

[Ken Poppers]

I was just at one of the Apple stores and I was told the easiest way to 
transfer files is through firewire.  Start your eMac and then the iMac 
holding down the T key on the iMac and its hard drive will appear on 
the eMac as a firewire drive.  It works for transfering files, although 
I don't know about passwords and such.  Let me know how it goes.
