Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I was wondering how to get all my information off of it
sj, just to clarify: do you want to save the information to, say, a DVD for future reference or do you simply want to destroy the data so no one can see it?
For the latter, a hammer works well (wear safety goggles!). Or, the less fun way would be to use one of these tools to securely erase the data [link]
The latter. Thanks for the link, Eddie.
That's a lot of fans:

Anyone here work with CVSNT or CVS? (On Windows)
The Phillips DVP642 DVD player has fans here (including me), so I thought I'd share this deal. Refurbished players for $36: [link]
Confirmation: of the TiVo download (yesterday's news) and DirecTV dropping TiVo (isn't that last year's news, almost?).
What's a good free FTP program for Mac? I've been using Cyberduck, but the latest version has some major bugs in it.
FTP services are built into the finder in OS X. Under the "go" menu in the finder do a connect to network and just use "ftp://" and it will open in a regular window. For more stuff I use Fetch but that's not free.
FTP services are built into the finder in OS X.
How long has that been there?
FTP services have been in the finder since the beginning of OS X but they were more limited until 10.2 or 10.3.
