[QUOTE="SimonJester, post: 827772, member: 95069"] My Mac Pro was purchased custom configured in April or May of '08, and my mb the preceding December ('07), so I believe I fall into the range in question. I've imported 24 live, lossless digital audio onto [i]both[/i] machines' via FireWire 400 with absolutely no problem. I'm sure that the process is helped by the quality software Tascam provides, but that's still A LOT of information to be processed that wouldn't make it through anything [i]but[/i] a quality chipset. I'd imagine that if there was a problem with the FW chipsets, it was more an issue of defective products, rather than a defective model. I know many recordists who use Macs and their FW interfaces for their equipment, and I've never heard of such an issue. [/QUOTE]
