Thanks Tony and Mark.
In this specific case, one of my neighbors who is a windows person
bought a Buffalo Linkstation. This is a linux box.

He also bought a USB drive to use as a backup device. The question he
specifically asked was that if he had to get data out of the USB hard
drive, how to do it from Windows. At this time, I know that the USB hard
drive is formatted with a Linux file system, but Harvey was unable to
determine what filesystem, and I am assuming EXT2/3. I am also burning a
Knoppix 3.4 CD for him. (He's a bit gunshy because he recently lost a
hard drive and its data).
Additionally, the Buffalo device also serves as a print server.
BTW: The buffalo device has a web interface, but it apparently has
telnet and ssh blocked, to make it more difficult to hack into.
