I'd be very curious to hear what you get back from them! It seems
like we'd already be quite a lot of the way there, if MacroSystem has
firewire. There are only a few firewire chipsets out there, but lots
of CD drives, HDDs, etc. as well as scanners, camcorders, professional
SLRs etc.

It'd be one less use for the Mac and one more use for MorphOS. That,
a real browser and modern email client, and bye-bye Macintosh!!

If need be, I have a firewire CD burner and firewire camcorder to use
as test units for any code that comes my way. The burner is a Yamaha
8x, and the camcorder is a JVC GR-DVL915U.
