Any Thinkpad user here using their Firewire port? What would you use it for? I read that we can make ad-hoc connection between two computers.

I don’t think thinkpads ever came with the 6 or 8 pin flavors of firewire, only the 4 pin “i link” style plug that doesn’t do power.
Which essentially limits them to only transferring data to devices with batteries like camcorders.
No idea, I don’t have any ThinkPads with IEEE1394. I’m pretty sure the only laptops to come with 6 pin FireWire were Macs, with the 8 pin only appearing on PowerBooks, I believe.
But they dropped FireWire with the first “unibody” MacBook.
