According to the latest issue of Mac Addict and a post on MacSlash (http://macslash.org/articles/03/08/22/1013256.shtml), the word "FireWire" is now in the Oxford English Dictionary (http://www.oed.com). That is SO AWESOME!!!
Supposedly the word is defined as "a standard high-performance serial bus for connecting devices to a personal computer".

That's awesome, now I am just waiting for the definition for "Apple" to be something along the lines of "A high end computer company delivering stable, quality alternatives to Windows based PCs"
