  AMD Athlon Could Slow Down Your Apple iPod
Time: 15:09 EST/20:09 GMT | News Source: DesignTechnica | Posted By: Erick Cordero

If you bought an iPod to match your Mac - you're in luck. Naturally, it just works out of the box. True plug-and-play. Hook it up to your FireWire port, charge it, store stuff on it. Grab it. Go mobile with it.

Unless, of course, you own an Athlon-powered notebook PC. This tale of woe from The Inquirer involves a Compaq Presario and its unfortunate owner.

The author found his Presario laptop didn't have USB 2.0, only 1.1. So he duly purchased a CardBus USB 2.0 card, a USB->FireWire cable and a USB 2.0 hub to go with his shiny iPod. Disaster struck.
