It seems that the FCC continues to "Fight for the Consumer" (editors note: 
when they aren't too busy harrassing Stern or relaxing media conglomerate 
restrictions)and this time they make it easier to get HDTV from your cable 
box. In a 
<http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/fcc-requires-firewire-on-all-cable-boxes-015708.php>blog 
from <http://www.gizmodo.com/>Gizmodo. It seems that cable companies are 
being forced by the FCC to add a firewire port to every cable box for every 
consumer that wants it (starting April 1st).
