Universal agreement 6
The only reason Intel stopped pushing FireWire (IEEE 1394)--which they were doing before--is because they don't want to pay the 25 cent royalty per motherboard. While Intel is a big proponent of royalties on their own technology, they don't like to pay them to anyone else.
I agree fully that we have two great standards--USB for slower devices, FireWire for high-speed devices. I think Intel should focus on a USB 1.2 standard, making USB as seamless as FireWire is today. Let's make sure you can plug in a USB device and work with it immediately and maybe even have a repository of qualified drivers to simplify driver handling.
