Well, thanks to Engadget we now know why: Apple is very, very involved in the conception of Light Peak. Let's take this opportunity to look at some of Apple's other connection standards from the past.

Apple seems to search for a universal firewire replacement, and this time they have Intel on board.
Unless the OEM's (Dell, Acer, HP) get on board with this though it will just be another niche market that will fizzle out. Sony and Apple were the only 2 OEM's I remember really pushing firewire which is one reason why I think it never caught on to the mainstream.
