You mean the 480 versus 400 misunderstanding? It don't mean Jack. In actual,
live, real, practical, normal tests, Firewire = no dropped frames unless
caused by actual problems in the recording, and USB2 = dropped frames
regardless. It has to do with _how_ they transfer data, not how fast they
can transfer data in theory.
