You're kidding, right? This is not an across-the-board standard. Most devices that have USB 2 also have Firewire. And in actual operation, the throughput of even Firewire 400 is faster than USB 2. I, for one, am happy for the 2 Firewire ports (since the 800 port can be used with 400 devices using an adapter). I'd glad that once again Apple is taking the initiative with Firewire 800.
