do any dell centrino laptops come with firewire?

doesn't necessarily have to be centrino, but something with a pentium-m base. i've been seeing so many deals lately at dell, i'm tempted but i want everything included in my laptop, on-board so i dont' have to worry about it later.

Dell Latitude D600 or Inspiron 600M dosen't come with firewire, I do know that the D800 has it though.

I liked my Dell 600m for the 3 days I had it but sold it to go back to my Compaq 1500T.

Although my 1500T is 1 year 2 months old it still can compete with today's laptops:
Two USB 2.0 ports
One Firewire port
ATI Radeon 7500 32MB
Floppy
DVD-ROM
modem/NIC
15.0" SXGA

Damn that Staples deal from 9/02 was HOT!!!

my D600 doesn't have it...but I still love it.

dang, 300m is nice and small, but no drives. 600m is a nice size, but no firewire. D800 has firewire but it's too thick. d600 nice size, but no firewire. x300 needs a seperate media base. man, dell should make a laptop that's less than 1.3" thick, has firewire, serial, dvd burner, and 14.1" sxga+. that would be awesome.

thanks for the input guys.

Agreed, there has to be some sort of perfect middle ground.

I don't want ultra light portable nor a heavy desktop replacement beast with a 15.4" LCD ... something in the middle with optical drive and Centrino.
