So we can laugh at the fact that they can't find a simple 1394 to USB cable and instead rely on daisy chaining a hundred dollars worth of apple products to make it work...

Holy shit.

a hundred dollars worth of apple products

What's that, like, one cable?

Hahaha - no, that’s just the little clippy bit at the end of the cable. The cable’s extra.

Right? Like this guy was a prophet. Uh, one of those prophets who appear, y’know, after all the stuff happens.

I didn't buy those adapters, I just used a computer that had a FireWire 400 port. I haven't found any evidence of those direct USB cables working with old iPods.
