Only if it is new enough. This feature was added to TDM around the
release of the PowerMac G5 (mid 2003). Earlier models don't let you
access anything more than the primary hard drive on the first ATA bus
via TDM.

I haven't collected enough evidence yet to say where the exact cutoff
point is for each series, but I expect it was the September/October 2003
models for everything apart from the PowerMac G5.

That method will work with any other Mac with Firewire.

That method won't work if the other Mac is too old.

I use a 700MHz G3 iBook (the machine I'm using at the moment) for
browsing with Safari and FireFox and usenet almost daily. I prefer it to
a reasonably well appointed MacBook because of the geometry of the
screen. This machine is running OS X v10.4.11 and has 640MB of RAM.

It seems that the cost of Airport cards for these old machines is
dropping. I feared a few days ago that mine was failing. The last time I
had priced the internal cards, they were upwards of US$100. Now the ebay
price seems to be around half that.

I've not tried using this machine to work with an iPod, but I would
expect it to work well.

I've just used the included compressor functionality on my Parallels VM
running XP. I deleted unwanted files from inside Windows then used the
Windows defrag tools first. The process reduced the size of the Vm from just
over 20GB to just over 6GB. A nice saving that'll make it much easier to have
the VM on my MacBook Air internal disk when using the Air when travelling.

Well worth doing if you want to claim some space back and have been using a
VM for a while. It took about 3 hours to the the process. Make sure you
duplicate the folder containing the VM first!

Does isync only sync from the address book to a phone and not in the
other direction? I thought I could use it to back up contact
information on my wife's phone to her account on the imac. I suppose
that makes some sense but it's not quite what I expected to happen based
on my experience with a palm pda.

I bought it cheap on eBay for to use a Bluetooth GPS and navigation
software. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes to get everything working
together (Bluetooth, GPS and WM). I have never seen such a crap
combintion of hardware and software. The cradle is so big you'd think
it's able to charge a Prius.

Oh, and it looks like it is Windows 3.11's kid brother.
