[clue-tech] Seeing Linux files on Windows

[Kevin Cullis]

So, based on what you, Dave, and David stated, if it's older it's  
more probable, but it the file system is newer it more a possibility,  
right?

Primarily I'm talking about seeing files on a drive of some sort.  
I've taken a look at explore2fs and its looks exactly what I would be  
looking for. What are the et al or explore2fs?

I'm aware of this stuff above, but was looking for more of a "quick"  
solution of sharing hardware to hardware.
