Here is another XL. I even added it to the Wikipedia database. :biggrin:

I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

It seems they're slowly phazing out the 4000s here in TX.

I feel like FTPing the XL to extract some files if I have the know-how.

How could you possibly FTP into the XL?

Did this star replace the 4000 that was there?

That's the thing, I couldn't.

BTW, nice find on that XL, Chris.

You might find that there will be an XL in Norfolk, VA soon too :P haha while that method is not the one i would choose it may be possible to extract content from the xl :thumbsup:

It would be impossible. The only connections that the XL has is a One-Way, Client-Server connection. No internet or anything.

However you could simply pull the drives out and go through them right?

Unless it uses some proprietary file system, yes.
