  1. USB expansion for an older computer

    My computer was built about the time Windows XP was released and didn't have very many USB ports. Whenever I needed my scanner, printer, or card reader, I had to unplug something else in order to plug it in.

The mother-board had several empty PCI slots, but none of the newer type expansion slots. Read more

We had, amongst other things, 2 digital cameras. Unfortunately, many peripheral devices have usb cables where the connections to the peripheral device are different. Read more
