Hi Gordon, No, you can't connect to any Sky box as far as I know by USB or Firewire. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

Is connectivity to the Plus box \high definition or otherwise able to be made by usb2 or firewire. I would like to take the files off the internal Harddrive for use on computer. Alternatively is there a usb or pci card for sky digital input. I realise this would need a connection and a Sky card but this would be oK.
