This helped me out a whole lot considering almost everything I connect to my computer is a usb connection. I might have to get another one eventually. I works very well though.
It was so cheap it doesn't pay to return it. I was looking for a USB hub with a longer cable, but unfortunately only one of the four ports worked for me. Fairly useless. Oh well, you get what you pay for. In this case, you get a little less than what you pay for.
Can't beat ceap price, only weighs a few ounces, plastic with power light. I plugged my ancient Lexmark Optra R+ into it by using a parallel to USB cable and Vista64 recognized, found driver. My USB mike prefers to be connected direct to machine and not a hub.
I received this hub for free as it was a parting gift from a conference. The hub casing and such does feel a little flimsy as other people have mentioned, but I love the fact that there is one plug on each side of the unit. I have another USB hub with four ports right next to each other and some wider devices make it hard to use adjacent ports. With this hub, there are no problems with that.If I had to buy an inexpensive, self-powered hub, I'd give this one a whirl.
It is splendid for being attached by a long wire to the computer so you have a place to put it on a crowded desk
