	Everyone's excited about USB right? Wrong! Thus far I've had 10x more problems with USB than I ever had with ADB (which was none). The latest being that unless it is OFF on startup, my Lacie CD-RW (blue box) kills boot with a nasty error. Leave it OFF and startup ... no problem (well small problem ...several refresh retrys needed to get Toast to recognise CD-RW. Then works just fine. IMHO -- the jury is still out on USB ... fast ... yes ... easy ....??? ... hot swappable ... HA!
