    well this was originally was a question dealing with a PCI-to-Firewire card, but i got to thinking. if i'm not mistaken, the PCI slot has a transfer rate of 133 or so Mb per second for each slot. i thought i saw a company that advertised firewire PCI card for PC's, advertised with a xfer rate of 400Mb/sec. how can this be? the PCI would bottleneck this to 133, correct?

    Does anyone have any opinions on the implimentation and availability of firewire solutions for PC laptops? Specifically I/O for 1394 DV video, and audio in and out of firewire external hard drives. I'll be running Foundry, Logic Audio, and Pro Tools Free in Win ME on a PIII 700 from HP. :confused:
