Another thing is funny...From my Ibook, in Firewire Target disk mode 
with the iBook, I indeed can see everything on it...but i tried to open 
a picture, just by double clicking it, but with no luck...had to copy it 
(import) it first from the iBook to the Powerbook, before I was able to 
open it...hum...

You know why?
