    That's a great question and an excellent answer! This is one of my (many) pet peeves in the Storage industry... GBICs haven't been mainstream for years (although I'm sure there are still a few people out there with TRUE legacy environments who might still have a few). Unfortunately getting rid of the terminology will be like getting people to stop saying they are "dialing a phone number" *lol*
