Yeah, I find the MacBook Pro just looks so darn good! Plus, it seems to have
a lot of hardware features. The only PC-based I found with a Intel Core Duo
2.0+ is a Toshiba. But, I like how the MacBook Pro appears to have a 6-pin
firewire. I say "appears" because I could only tell from the photos of it
on Apple's site. They don't explicitly mention it. I need a 6-pin firewire
port cause I work with firewire cameras that don't have an external power
supply (they get their power from the port).
