Probably so, but both my older mobos support it, my older laptop had it,

and my (relatively) newer laptop does not. It has ports aplenty - USB,

had Firewire it when I bought the laptop, and I did specifically look

for it.

Linux-compatible audio/video devices appeared for PCI-E and Thunderbolt ?
