Mar 21	comment	FireWire on MacBook Air - Help! I really have a hard time believing the Macbook Air can't handle PT - it's fast as all get out, faster than a MBP IMO (solid state FTW). Is the reason people dog the MBA lack of firewire? If so, if you don't mind I'd like to get your opinion on the Avid Eleven guitar interface [link] (avid.com/US/products/eleven-rack_2). I've found one on eBay for $700 (with PT 10), new. It's USB, but I guess I'm just hoping that somehow it will work. I'm a guitarist, and I just need to be able to record, then play back - so is latency really an issue? I'll look in to the Apollo.

Feb 29	comment	FireWire on MacBook Air - Help! Darn it. Question: Do I even need Firewire in the interface given that the Air has no Firewire? The Macbook Air is so perfect for all of my other business / computing needs. The Eleven guitar interface seems pretty rad from a functionality standpoint, but given that it looks like it connects via USB it would also accomplish what you were talking about. Here is the brochure, which shows the connections on the back link Does this thing look like it would accomplish a latency-free connection with Pro Tools?
