electronista.com — A future version of FireWire will quadruple the speed of today's fastest version, the IEEE 1394 Trade Association has revealed. Officially known as S3200, the format will build on the same connectors and technology used for today's FireWire 800 but operate at a peak of 3.2 gigabits per second, or 400 megabytes per second.

Asus boards always have firewire.

Actually, Kier - IllBeBack is right. The possessive form of 'it' does not have an apostrophe. Before you start criticizing other people, you may want to research the language a bit more (Try googling for "its vs it's" or something like that)."It's Mike's car" is fine. (It is Mike's car)"It's house" should in fact be "Its house".

True but thats coming AFTER USB 2.0 and AFTER SATA thus Apple falling behind in prevailing technologies and murdering its availability anyway with draconian licensing. Why do you think USB is more widely distributed?!! THAT IS FACT MACTARD!

The 1394 Trade Association announced its new S3200 specification, which uses the existing cables and connectors already deployed for FireWire 800 products in order to make for a faster transition to the new speed.The new spec known as S3200 preserves all the advantages from existing firewire 800 or 1394b including the peer-to-peer protocol, bus-powered capability even with works the same cable and connector.One major different is major performance boost with <a class="user" href="http://S3200.com">http://S3200.com</a>S3200 will hit 3.2 Gigabits Per Second comparable to USB 3.0, which will use a combination of copper wire and fibre optic to provide transfer rates of 4.8 gigabits a second, 10 times faster than the current USB 2.0 standard.
