I wanted to point out an alternative if she needs lots of IO and is

Latency and system load are still worse than with native PCI/PCIe
solutions in current implementations, no matter what Firewire is

notebooks. Maybe we should start a list of notebooks with proper
interrupt setup to inform people *before* buying a new machine. What
would be a good place for this?
