Why Apple insist on use Firewire 400 instead of Firewire 800 on the new serie of PowerMac G5?

Every PowerMac G5 has one FireWire 800 port and two FireWire 400 ports.

I would suggest reading the following link for further information:

http://www.apple.com/powermac/specs.html

Expansion
One FireWire 800 port, two FireWire 400 ports (one on front); three USB 2.0 ports (one on front), two USB 1.1 ports (on keyboard); AGP 8X Pro slot with graphics card installed, including ADC connector and DVI connector

In After The Lock. Nice lock pic, btw.

The original poster may have meant FW800 on the front panel.
