Right now I'm copying my movie collection from my Mini to my MBP using firewire... I love it! So much faster than 802.11b. Yes, I'm old school... my wireless router is about 5 years old. 400Mbps is much faster than 11Mbps, especially when transferring 40+Gb!

Lol... I will be forced to buy a new router in a couple of weeks when I move. My new house only has a cable jack in the living room, and my computer room is across the house, so I'm pretty sure at least an 802.11g router will be in the works. :)
