    You will need a different laptop, if it has no firewire capability you cannot use it! Sorry

    You need a port for the 1394 card that accepts the flexwire. When I bought my laptop the model above it was on sale but didn't have the right port for the card. Go to the KE9NS.com website for EVERYTHING Flex.Truly AWESOME site, Darrin and his software renewed my 3G a bunch !

    Ignore the nay-sayers :) Many Inspirons have an Expresscard slot and you can get a Firewire card to fit this. Look for one with a Texas Instruments chipset.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
