Hi

I would like to put my I-Pod to work. It has over 30 gigs free and I need to transfer large files between different computers running win 2000 and XP pro. I would like to try using the I-Pod for this before I buy a portable USB hard drive (isn’t that what an I-Pod is?). Only one computer involved would have I-Tines installed on it. Anyone ever try this? I could use some suggestions. I have done with my digital camera but that has less storage space.

Thanks.

Thanks, I did that on a computer that doesn’t have I-tunes and it worked. It crashed a few background programs like my palm sync program and others but they came back on a reboot.

Any ideas on what to do if I need to do this on a computer that dose have I-tunes installed? If this cant work I guess its good to have more then one computer at the same location.
