Hi list,
I try not to start some flamewar. Normally I can look up my hardware alone, but all the
hardware-websites can't help me in one point:
I need a laptop which is able to power my Firewire-Interface (Terratec Phase X24) over
Firewire. Do you know if something like this exists? All my laptops in the past (2) were
not able to do that. Both had only a "small" firewire-interface.

I have a mac g3 (white not clamshell picure here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ibook12.jpg ) that has a full power
firewire port and runs a stripped down up to date debian system quite
smoothly, with low latency on the builtin sound card. I could be
wrong, but I always thought that the full size firewire plugs were
powered and the smaller ones were not.
