I found this link after "Googling" seems like it may be easier than Looking for a Linux box:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/
I have both Mac OSX and Windows XP at my home, and I have about 600GB of Firewire storage on the Mac, this was my preference. My drive turned out to have corruption that I couldn't deal with, but it's worth a try for you.
Here is a link to a Windows version if you're interested:

I mounted my drives in a Firewire external box fired up my Mac, and went from there.
Hope this is of use... thanks to Fuzzy_Wombat for his input to me.
Good Luck

I've removed the drives and attached them to both a Mac and a PC with a drive clone device. Both machines detect the drives but don't recognize the format.
Does anyone here have any idea how I might read these drives?
