Yup. No firewire on the macbook pro. I work with guys with huge budgets and buy new machines when they come out, that won't go near it because of that and the glossy screen.
Holding down T on start up turning the donor machine into an external hard drive was just smart.
Brett, I just bought a 16gig flash drive for $20 from newegg. Might be a good option.
