i'm not picking a fight, but why stand up for Apple, when this is clearly a problem for many people, dedicated customers and new customers alike?
I'm certainly not telling people what they should do. It's just that I've heard just about enough complaining regarding the lack of firewire on the Macbook, and it's not only just here. No amount of bitching is going to bring it back if Apple doesn't want it.
There are more important things in life to be concerned about. No one is forcing anyone to buy a laptop they don't want, but you know, as sure as you know anything, that Apple is going to sell a boatload of Macbooks.
So, all, if you can live without the firewire, then enjoy using the new Macbook, I know I will...if not, then move on to something else. Apple is not leaving you behind. You still have the option to buy a plastic Macbook with firewire. And keep in mind - we can't call it "the previous model" because it is still in their current product lineup.
And, by the way, this is not called a fight. It's a healthy discussion [LOL]
