Hello beautiful people,

I have a question, and I hope to get a few different answers for it, and hopefully, all equally applicable answers!

I have the following things:

MOTU Microexpress
MOTU 828 mark 1 (at that time it was just called an 828 firewire interface)
DP 3.11 running on a 500Mhz ibook G3

I am getting a windows laptop (still not sure what the specs will be, but it'll be a new generation PC windows XP SP2), and I'd like to do the following:

upgrade to DP 5
get MachFive 2

My question for you all:
Can I still use my old microexpress and 828 mk1 with the new setup?

ANY suggestions/opinions/ideas for tech specs and other things will be most welcome.

Thank you all in advance,
GRAZIE MILLE,
Enrico

Maybe, maybe not. firewire is all over the place in the PC world, so you will have to do research to find out if the laptop has the Texas instruments firewire chip set, No TI chipset and it won't work.

None of the PC laptops have 6-pin firewire so you will have to get new cables or an adapter for 6-pin to 4-pin firewire.

Lastly DP is a Mac only program won't run on a PC laptop!!!
