Yah... and its been a long time coming. Glad to see it finally. [whew]. Yah know... in the PC flame threads I generally stick up for winders and MS and PC clones but this was something that Apple figgered out in the early 80's: Serial bus rules. Parallel drools.
Neato thing about USB is that now its showing up everywhere. Just went thru the drill of getting dad set up with a new 'puter. Got him a Dell with a shuweet LCD DVI 19' display.

Duh... I hate it when I get outta touch with things. The display has a built-in USB hub. Gives four USB ports right on the display. Shuweet. (OK... so I don't set up computers fer a livin' any more...)
Yeah, the most exasperating thing about my laptop is that it only has two USB ports, and they're on the back. USB on the LCD sounds like a great combination...
Man, I want a 19inch LCD...
