Always nice to see a technology that obsoletes my entire array of peripherals.

I feel like Fred Flintstone when I look at the latest and greatest (or even not-so-great-est) at the stores and online. :’)

I thought it was against the FR rules to write in a foreign language. After reading every post so far I don't have a clue what the hell was said in one of them. I know what a USB port is, but beyond that it's Greek.

I am just so busy I can hardly wait for my computer to operate faster. This will add at lease 45 seconds of free time to my day.

All the old USB 2.0 stuff will work the same as usual (i.e. at USB 2.0 speed) when connected to a USB 3.0 port.

There might be some stupid "This Device Can Perform Faster" popups, but there should be some way to turn those off.

It is backwards compatible to your peripherals. And, the mouse, keyboard and many other peripherals won't need the extra speed. They work fine on the existing USB.
