Regarding my earlier wrt firewire on a ZUNE HD with AMD Athlon 3250e dual core processor, I was thinking about using the eSATA connection(s) as a possible route into the box. Is there an outboard eSATA to IEEE 1394 converter available?

These boxes are far cheaper than (more or less) equivalent floptop or laptop machines, and would make nice, tiny, dedicated Flex controllers. The matter turns around the two questions of (a) whether the 3250e dual core proc is capable, and (b) whether there is an easy way to bring firewire control in and out of the box without major surgery. My understanding is that the AMD Athlon 3250e with its dual core is quite a bit more capable than the atom processors usually found in miniboxes.

To the respondees to my Malvina Reynolds reference...hey, guys, you're showing your age... ;>)

To the great silent majority who wondered "what the ...?" I would say "google it." The great deus intra muros will tell all.
