You'd need to get a TCP/IP network running over IR. On the Mac, go to the TCP/IP control panel, select IR as the connection method (pop-up menu), and fill in the other fields as appropriate. No idea how you'd do it on Windows. Other alternatives would be Ethernet, or a USB Zip drive. Cheers,

You should be able to read DVDs, but you won't be able to play them. A 300MHz G3 is simply not fast enough to decode the DVD video. Older PBG3s either had decoder circuitry on the logic board, or supported DVD decoder PC cards. The iBook has neither capability, so there's nothing you can do.

Hmm, should have read the subject more carefully. No idea if OS X supports IR on the Pismo. Either way, IR should be considered a method of last resort; even borrowing an Ethernet PCMCIA card would be better. Cheers, Ben On 16 Dec 2004, at 00:48, Ben Dyer wrote: You'd need to get a TCP/IP
