A man has looked at the box of cables he’s had for more than twenty years and decided to hang on to them.

      I still use firewire. When I eventually can afford to upgrade from my ff800 to a better rme, I will not be getting rid of any of it.

        I got a free PC off Craigslist because the motherboard has Firewire built in, and when I dragged that heavy dusty PC into my closet, a box fell to the ground, it was a PCI Firewire card I bought for my Value Village PC… I already had solved the problem earlier and forgot about it…
