[MacDV] Re: FW HD's that work with iMovie?

[Geno Kearney]

10.2 may have taken care of this problem. I just imported about an hours
worth ov video from my GL-1 to may Lacie 160gb Firewire drive with no
problem. It's the 2nd time I've done it since going to 10.2. The 1st time
was by accident and was a short import. The 2nd time I tried it just to see
if I could. Maybe I was just lucky, but I'll be trying it again soon.
