[quote dotman]does that dongle give you true ethernet speed? if they could have just squeezed in an express slot.

Of course. Even with USB2 limitations, I've yet to see the 480mbit ethernet connection anywhere except cable company with an OC 12 or similar business!
it's not wired gigabit ethernet for file transfers, but it is half that..... which is 5x 10/100. I think the Core2 can handle that load, managing USB. No micro-FW port is what I can't figure out.
This requires you to abandon all previous systems and truly get on the very latest and greatest.
