Ok, so here's a geeky question... while waiting for a set to come through, I was daydreaming and started wondering what the Firewire logo represents and where the Firewire name came from? Any story/meaning behind the name?

I'm guessing the name stems from the company's use of CAD/CNC and the high-tech construction, so they gave the brand a techy name (which was associated with speed)??
What's the logo supposed to be? A boomerang... Aussie origins?
Well if we go with Aussie themed named, how about Randy Surfboards?
