I've been sitting on the fence for a while procrastinating but I'm at the point where I need to take the plunge. I've already decided on the N12, just need to mate a laptop to it. I've been looking at the custom made-for-audio PC models but if there are off-the-shelf models that are running with no issues I don't see why I shouldn't try one. I realize that, at least from what I've read, the N12 requires the TI chipset for firewire but I think the plug-in firewire card is a workaround for that, right?
Any thoughts are welcome,

Just remember that you may need a 1394 card in addition. Many of the Mother Board versions are not compatible .... and..... before you ask which one?....... too many variations to know.
I'm fond of the HP laptops but you may want to call support 714 522-9000
