FireWire goes PRO!!! Apple wants pros to buy PRO machines, so that's the way they differentiate consumer from pro. Makes perfect sense to me, and might steer me away from getting a macbook for my next one Bill Kline Greer, SC Sent from my iPhone3G One of my group members was all set to pony up the cash for a new 'luminum MacBrick Pro, but what stopped him cold was the lack of a Firewire port.
It seems that he is a musician and his 'high end' music mixing software requires he use an external drive to handle the huge volume of data to be compiled from the instruments connected to his old Pro Mac.
He described some issue with the way data is transferred using USB. He says the resulting music was "choppy" with USB, but that cleared up with Firewire.
Lack of Firewire was a deal breaker.
What is this he is talking about? Is this a case of perception over reality?
