Yes - I have the same card. It worked well in my Wallstreet (OS 9.1 I think) and works in my Powerbook 800 under OS 10.2.1. No drivers required for OS 10 but I need a restart sometimes to get the Firewire device recognised. In OS9 I seem to recall some extension issues but it worked very well. -- With best wishes, Roger Shufflebottom -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
