I only use it for one thing, but hey, It worked.

(5 out of 5) by Jason Zagar on Aug 17, 2001 (Pottsville, Pa USA)
Mind you, I haven't tried this with 3000 different USB products but I bought it with a Digital camera so I could use the USB port to get my pictures.

I got the card, turned off my computer, and put it into the PCI slot and screwed it in. I turned my computer on, it found and installed the USB card. I plugged in the camera's cord and plugged the cord into the camera. It recognized it and installed it. It's working perfectally.

What more can I say, It works just like any other USB port that I've used and I haven't had any problems with it. So if you need a USB port in your computer because it's old and doesnt have them, this here is your product.

Pretty unbeatable for the price, and works with linux.

(5 out of 5) by Alex J. Avriette on Aug 23, 2001 (Arlington, Virginia USA)
I have a pair of older macs here, a 9500 and an 8500. I installed this card in both machines. The card ran in MacOS 9, after using Apple's USB updater, which is available from their support/downloads site (for free of course). I also used this card with very good success in linux (no modules or kernel recompiles necessary in fact). One drawback is the card was not recognized by Mac OS X. However, with these older machines, Linux is a much better choice anyways.

Highly recommended at the price...

Works Great!

(5 out of 5) by Chet Claudon on Jan 21, 2002 (Yorba Linda, California USA)
Not much to say. Plugged it in, computer found it immediately, and Windows 98SE loaded the drivers. Five minutes tops. I now have an old Pentium 1 that is working great with the latest USB devices. I wish everything worked like this, just as advertised!

Worked like everything should work - right the 1st time

This is how everything should work: Plug it in. Use it.

That's what I got with this card.

Great Idea for older computers

(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Aug 3, 2001
I love this product. It was very simple to install and use. I was up and running within 5 minutes. It is great for older computers that do not have USB ports or if you just need a few more ports. Now I can use my laptop USB devices on my desktop as well. All this for under twenty dollars... what a deal.
