Hi,
I have a couple questions on i.LINK ( I guess also called 1394 cables) I'm a rookie.

1. to get the highest quality in video transfer from my camcorder (Sony DCR-HC26 Handycam) to my computer hard-drive, do I have to use the 4 pin to 4 pin connection or can I use the 4 pin to 6 pin (looks like a usb style end) connection since I don't have a connection on my computer for a 4 pin.
2. if I have to use a 4 pin to 4 pin connection for highest quality, is there a card I can buy to add this type of connection to my computer?
3. what is a good brand for these types of connections?
4. also I just seen there's a 1394a and 1394b connections available, whats the difference?

thanks for the help,
Glen
