I wasn't forgetting your vast experience. I'm just telling you that USB does not have this problem normally. Clearly there's something wrong somewhere. If you're being paid to fix it, I hope you've come up with a better solution than to install 1394 in all those machines.
Actually, I see my own choice more as between USB2 and eSata. But so far my experiments with eSata have been less than stellar. True, we could count on one hand the number of working USB3 devices in existence right now. But when that's laid to silicon - late 2008 we hope - you won't be able to say this any longer.
