How do I get RAW photos from Rebel XT to my computer using a USB Cable?

Do what all us RAW shooter's who shoot Nikon's and Canon's do. Buy a little $10 card reader and be done with it. Then all you have to do is copy the images files to your hard drive to a new file folder that you have named something that will remind you what the subject of the images is and you are all set AND you will not be using the battery power on your camera
