"I just heard back from a contact at Apple and they are working on the problem. They just released a fix for MacBook Pros, which I didn't know they had an issue. (FYI: As reported on the Expresscard reports page here since late 2008, the Unibody MBPs don't seem to work with any eSATA expresscard in Windows. Resource errors reported. One reader tried 5 or 6 different cards (Mike tried two - SIL3132 and JMB360 based ones, neither worked in Windows.) Not sure if any later updates fixed that or if the 2010 MacBook Pros work.-Ed)
He said the Mac Pro problem is being worked on, but he doesn't know when it'll be fixed.
But the good news is that it WILL be fixed!
Thanks again for all your help. Couldn't have done it without you.
-Dave"

"Subject: iSub fix for Leopard/PPC
Hi Mike (or Ed?)
I just dug my 20" iMac G4 out of storage, set it up, hoped the iSub would work, no dice. (what OS version are you running?) Googling found a fix that involves downloading a package of drivers and a shell script to install them.
Apparently this works with everything but iChat. Hurrah!
Apple forum thread "iSub Now Working, Fix Made" (G5 tower owner running 10.5.8 per Sig. No link in that thread page link, but earlier thread page has it - same as below)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/isub-fix/
-Kira"

That download page notes PPC Macs, so I assume there's still no fix for Intel-based Macs
