    Hello!
    I own a Inspiron 9300 and I'm planing to get a MOTU Ultralite firewire audio interface.

    I know there's a huge threat about firewire problems on Inspiron.
    But, if im not wrong, those problems came along with the core duo's inspirons, mine is centrino, do they got different firewires?

    I want to know if anyone uses this interface on an Inspiron.
    If you do, do you use the chipset's firewire or a firewire adapter; wich one?

    MOTU's interfaces work ok on Texas Instrument or Lucent FireWire chip sets.
    So in case it wont work with the built in firewire, what PCMCIA card with Texas Instrument or Lucent chipset do you recommend?

    Any comment will be greatly apreciated,
    Thanks!
