It seems they already lost that battle on a local level. I see far more USB 2 external devices now and very few firewire devices anymore. And when there is a firewire device, it is very expensive compared to a comparable USB 2 device. Intel probably pushed it by making it cheap. I don't know what Apple charges to license it out. Although, firewire stills reigns in the use of Video. It seems very controversial which is faster from what I could gather from the internet. I know firewire has the potential to be even faster but has it even materialized? -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
