[QUOTE="osburn, post: 1034901, member: 150775"] My PowerMac 8500 does indeed have a USB port in back. As to my original difficulty, I have successfully connected the two computers using Ethernet. However, some of the old files I transferred cannot be opened with programs running OS X, they require OS 9, which is apparently not installed on my G4. I do not have an OS 9 installation disc to put it on the G4, so I'm still hosed... [/QUOTE]
