    Hi all, as the Dell 1520 does not have gigabit ethernet, and I regularly transfer large files between my computers I thought of IP over Firewire (400Mbps) but sure enough Microsoft has canceled support for this feature in Vista and I doubt I will be able to get of the drivers I need for XP, And I dont plan on staying with XP forever. So I was wondering if anyone had gotten IP over firewire to work in Vista.
