How is the speed increase helping you? Ultimately you are transferring to DASD, and there just aren't that many implementations that are talking to SANS or RAID clusters that can handle more than 50MB/sec (and you would be using a PowerBook with). However, once again, this is a red herring. The issue is not that Firewire shouldn't be bumped by a speed factor of two; it's that Apple failed to bump USB by a speed factor of 40.
