Hee...nice try Dan...now would you like to review the entire history of SCSI
issues? Even today, how many times people still have to resort to the SCSI
dance? Oh, how about all those scanners that only work as the highest LUN on
the chain? Or at the physical end of the chain?
Compared to SCSI's growing pains, FireWire is doing extremely well. I also
find it interesting that in every case you cite, these are first -
generation FireWire implementations. Things do improve you know...or do you
stop using a technology at the first bug...wait, nevermind, of course you
donšt, you still use computers.
