Face it harpskid, the threads about the xmas party and grooming are much more interesting. Not too many people interested in whatever that is that you are talking about.

You would be much better off getting a firewire card for your computer - especially if its a desktop machine.

I saw a USB to IDE patch somewhere last week.
Basically you can lamp an IDE device onto it and stick the USB into your machine. Great for scanning corrupt hard disks on a good machine.
The Firewire to USB doesn't make enough sense for someone to produce one though.
Good advice from Jim there.
Firewire Cards (http://www.cableuniverse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=22_61) are as cheap as chips!

Apple have one for use with the ipod, not sure if it works with other stuff though.

try apple.com - check that it is what you are looking for - I have been known to be wrong in the past (just once mind you!!!) :p
