Interesting point on burning out the bus - I'll keep an eye out for this

It's FUD, not an interesting point. Firewire is a networking protocol, designed for connecting multiple devices. Just like SCSI, you can connect as many controllers and client devices as you like.

What's interesting is that people believe and persist in spreading crap about "burning out" and "hideous corruption". Sheesh. If I told you your trackpad emits toxic radiation, would you stop using it?
