Yes, I noticed it afterwards. I guess he was a bit confused. Maybe
he's new to USENET, and to computers in general. Terms *can* be
confusing, especially ones as close as "firewire" and "firewall". One
might even think they were related.

OP (Original Poster): It might be easier to think of Firewire as "IEEE
1394" or just "1394". That way it doesn't sound similar.
