I believe this is presently the case. I also believe Apple will work with Intel to bring firewire functionality in Intel up to par (hopefully better!) with the G Macs. I don't know this last bit but its my best guess. Its a bios thing - don't ask me the details. Intel Mac also don't boot into Open firmware and I don't think they run FW 800 yet. In fact they are mostly useful for the consumer end as many Pro aspects await further development - software and hardware. For various reasons things have to be rushed to market. Often less than complete. Its the way the market works. all the best Brian -- Mac UK is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... 123Inkjets.com <http://lowendmac.com/ad/123inkjets.html> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Mac UK list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/mac-uk.shtml> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:mac-uk@mail.maclaunch.com> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-uk%40mail.maclaunch.com/> iPod Accessories for Less at 1-800-iPOD.COM Fast Delivery, Low Price, Good Deal www.1800ipod.com
