Yes, FW used to be common on mid to high end laptops. First Sony pulled it off their PS3 then that ignited a trend that spread into the PC world where FW has become rare on new laptops and there has been rumours of the intentional 'murder' of firewire so these days you often need an expresscard slot if you want firewire. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
