DMA or NOT DMA, that is he question!

"When I think about Firewire I don't get a whole lot. Problem with that statement is this, Firewire was a good idea yes"

OC Firewire is and was from day one DMA capable, were as USB is not, i dont even htink the new USB3 is now made to be DMA capable, hopefully this new 10Gbit+ generic link is, and you Can always Bond several togetehr too it seems, IF they write that capability into its generic master/slave firmware....

the questionis when can we go down our local PC UK shop and buy 2 or more cards and i assume some form of router/hub to plug all this into and use PC to PC....

and what price inlusive of UK VAT and P&P

then we Might get to see mass x264 realtime Encoder patch to fast Encode over this great speed interconnect for instance.
