... My earlier reply was needlessly complex. Here is the bottom line. An Apple Macintosh brand computer that has been booted in Windows *is* a Windows...
That`s great David, I`m still buying some things I need for my C9.25 but should by about April/May be able to start saving for an Intel Mac Mini. I`ve also...
Well, I want to temper this data again with the fact that it was coupled with RAIDed hard drives. Anybody using an individual drive won't see as much of an...
The advantage is being able to switch between the Mac OS and Windows without a re-boot. This comes with a small (5% is the number I think I've read) speed...
Way back when I got my Mac Pro I ordered it with all four drives, 500G. Thought I had posed a question on this list on how to set them up, but can't find the...
Thanks Jeff, I haven`t been back to your site in a while! Do you still have the 10" Meade? Here`s a link to my iWeb site with my first attempt at Saturn on New...
This sounds like a nice app. However, imho, you are restricting it by having it compatible only with Firewire. I agree, Firewire is nice, but just about...
Hi Dorothy; Actually, there are more FireWire IIDC cameras and Manufacturers out there than USB Cameras. http://damien.douxchamps.net/ieee1394/cameras/ Almost...
Hi Daune, Thanks for your thoughts. Paul Gaylod asked this question a while back also. I just searched the archives which was helpful. I've got a much better...
This morning Apple announced new Mac Mini, iMac and Mac Pro computers. It is interesting to note that ALL of the new computers - even the least expensive Mac...
No Firewire 400 port anymore though. I guess this`d mean I have to use my PGR Fw 400-800 cable for my older Imaging Source camera & my Flea 2 would use the Fw...
Hi Mark; Yes FireWire 800 (or higher) is backwards compatible with FireWire 400. However you don't get FireWire 800 speed if you down step to FW 400. All you...
Milton can probably respond authoritatively, but if you have a FW400 hub and you connect it to a new Mac with FW800, I am nearly certain the channel just slows...
Hi Milton, I am wanting to add Astro IIDC and a firewire camera some time in the future. I'm still working out some other imaging equipment and skills. I have...
Hi John, My .02 - there is no reason to wait. The 640x480 camera can handle 60 fps on the firewire 400 bus. The largest chip is constrained to 15 fps, but that...
I have an Lx-200 10" and would like to get a new mac-mini. What FW800 camera should I get or should I plan on a usb II camera? I plan on run the mac-mini back...
I just bought a WAT-120N+ for $699. It is analog - but I run it through a camcorder and that gives me both FW and USB outputs. I have a LX200R. Terry - W6LMJ ...
I should have added, I just ordered the Equinox Tubestick Hybird, which will allow me to record the images directly on the MacBook Pro, or any Mac with USB to...
Hi Terry, I had a quick look at that Camera. I guess you mean you`re recording video images from the camera with the camcorder? My cameras are The Imaging...
Hi Terry; How are you dealing with the field interlace issues for analog cameras, especially when stacking? When I did video astronomy using Analog PAL and...
... FYI, I am offering an Imaging Source DMK 21BF04 (640 x 480 monochrome, 60 fps) FireWire camera on Astromart. The camera sells new for $470 and my asking...
