Firewire isn't an issue for me because I'm using USB to control my 1500. Everything went fine with the Boot Camp and Windows 7 installation except Windows doesn't "see" my wireless mouse. No problem when I boot to Mountain Lion. 73 - Ken

I have used the Mac Mini with the Flex radios without any problems. In fact, they are a good match. You can set the Mini right on top of the 5000 or 3000 and get a really short bonding cable between them to greatly reduce the possibility of RFI problems. -- Brian Lloyd, WB6RQN/J79BPL 3191 Western Dr. Cameron Park, CA 95682 br...@lloyd.com +1.767.617.1365 (Dominica) +1.916.877.5067 (USA) _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/
