    If it doesn't trash HDDs

    Only if the Mac OS doesn't causally trash Firewire 800 hard drives does Apple have a chance.... Apple lost a lot of street-cred on that boo-boo.

    Street credit my a**. The amount of data loss I've seen on any other OS doesn't make me even blink at the FW800 issue.

    On the other hand, they need to find a way to break MS Preferred Vendor deals. The company I work for is locked into XP workstations due to a deal with Microsoft.

    Trashing HDDs

    The Mac OS doesn't trash FireWire 800 hard drives. The drives' own outmoded firmware does that. The drive OEMs should be feel the heat on this one.
