Apple pushed Intel to develope 10Gbps "Light Peak"

[zanzabar]

Not Correct. By 1998 Apple had already released a computer w/ no legacy ports. All it had USB and EE1394.

that was my point, apple had hatted usb and had it for comparability (not by default ether) and wanted everything on firewire, then they went for usb and firewire was still better then they killed firewire as the prefered connector when they joined with intel. apple had nothing to do with the adoption or creation of usb


and optical cables for a peripheral is a pain, ive broken so many optical cables for the stereo (or have had them broken, im not sure how many i killed)
