Well, I've taken the plunge to attempt a blog. I'm not sure how this will play out, but it can't hurt.
I'll try to keep this updated and blog on things that I recieve the most questions or requests for.
A few weeks ago I was asked "I need to plug in 12 USB devices to my computer; what's the largest USB hub I can get?" ........ My response was "HUHHHH...What? Why?" The person had 2 portable 500GB drives, a few pen drives 1 through 8GB, a webcam, digi camera, joystick, mouse, keyboard, phones...blah..blah..blah.. I tried to tell them there really is no need to plug in more than 4 or 5 USB devices at a time. Any more is just asking for trouble.. Even though, in theory, you can hookup 120 USB devices, doesn't mean you should. The voltage required (.05) and computer resources would just slow the system down to a point of uselessness. Even with a powered USB hub.
Anywho, I was able to find a 49 port USB data hub.. Why would it be needed? I don't know..
But here it is.. http://www.crunchgear.com/2009/05/28/49-port-usb-hub-is-just-plain-practical/..
If you just want to charge USB devices and not transfer data. Here's an 80 port hub.. http://www.geek.com/articles/gadgets/80-port-usb-charger-on-the-verge-of-overdoing-things-20100129/
Well, if anyone has anything they want me to blog about, just let me know.
