Warp 4 and eCS can certainly see each other over a LAN - why not use a
network share and XCOPY over it, Tim?

Is there no network card in the Warp 4 PC?  No CD burner?

CD burner in the old system?  ZIP and burn?

Could you drop the burner from the new system in the old, add EMX
support and CDRECORD and MKISOFS in there, and burn that SCSI drive's
contents to a DVD disc, if it won't compress?
