Re: Re: Would this work for Mobuis?

I have an M100

My fiancee's got a thinkpad that she loves, but it's
older.  I tried Mobius on it but I think I was using a
horrible USB interface and it wasn't working very
well.  I bet with the right tweak and interface it
would be a killer machine.  I think they have built in
firewire too.
