Re: filmscanners: Firewire IEEE1394

OK, let's put this one to sleep.

I just threw my wife off her computer (I'll pay for that) and rebooted XP
Home (she's dual booting Me until she gets everything over).  I went into
Add Hardware and told it I would manually select the device.

Clear as day, there was a choice for an IEEE 1394 Controller.

So, Windows XP Home DEFINITELY includes drivers for Firewire.

Although this has already been beaten to death and there have been several
links to Microsoft's site showing it was posted, I can now personally
comfirm support.
