But that is really irrelevant. Since Intel just manufacture's the chips what would that have to do with whether a computer manufacture uses firewire on their logic boards? I am not clear on how you can state that Intel only uses USB 2.0. This is wrong in so many respects. The only thing dangling would be these bizarre predictions. Let's all just wait and see what does happen. With developers applauding this move to a large extent, and with this not being some rash decision on Apple's part...I feel you will find things in order when they make the move. RM
