yeah I've heard the same thing, and to make matters worse, they are working on a 800 transfer firewire speed. You need to get yourself a 800 to 400 convertor, as it may be the case that the chip set you have in your mack book is running at 800, rather then 400.

Here's the deal. Our boy Damon Fibraio just bought a Macbook pro. If I go into the device manager on the macbook and look up firewire devices, I see "OSI compliant device." If damon does the same thing, it actually shows TI chipset. This tells me that the Pros have a bonified Texas instrument firewire chip. That's what you want for audio. The macbooks have something else. Warning!! Roomer has it that the newer macbook pros were outfitted with a different chip set, which everyone and their brother is complaining about. I'm not sure if they fixed this in the newest rev, but it was all over the forums. Just a few thoughts. Reeves PLEASE READ THIS FOOTER AT LEAST ONCE!
