[filmscanners] Re: OT Polaroid film recorder

["Arthur Entlich" <artistic-1@shaw.ca>]

I haven't been following this thread, but has your friend considered
zipping or otherwise compressing the files with another computer and
then uploading them somewhere on the net and then downloading them to
his new computer and installed them onto the hard drive as disk 1, 2, 3,
in separate folders?  Were the original disks named or numbered via disk
label during formatting (do Macs do that??)

Sorry, don't know much about Macs.
