IEEE 1394

protocol for transferring digital data

A competing design with USB but has some features that can (can not necessarily will) make it more attractive in managing streaming data

IEEE 1394a (2000) [firewire] and USB 2.x have virtually identical data transfer rates but administrative overhead in firewire seems to be conductive to its use with dynamic and streaming data
 
thanks!

now another question...

Digidesign Mbox "mini"

is that a firewire?
