no it's not that slow but it's still slower than scsi at 1.5MB/s....if you
notice a modern parallel port is still twice as fast as usb1

8 bits in a Byte... 12/8=1.5, but I know what you meant pooka :)
  serial port: 115kbits/s (.115Mbits/s)
  standard parallel port: 115kBYTES/s (.115MBYTES/s)
  USB: 12Mbits/s (1.5MBYTES/s) <****************
  ECP/EPP parallel port: 3MBYTES/s
  IDE: 3.3-16.7MBYTES/s
  SCSI-1: 5MBYTES/s *******************
  SCSI-2 (Fast SCSI, Fast Narrow SCSI): 10MBYTES/s*******
  Fast Wide SCSI (Wide SCSI): 20MBYTES/s*******
  Ultra SCSI (SCSI-3, Fast-20, Ultra Narrow): 20MBYTES/s
  UltraIDE: 33MBYTES/s
  Wide Ultra SCSI (Fast Wide 20): 40MBYTES/s
  Ultra2 SCSI: 40MBYTES/s
  IEEE-1394: 100-400Mbits/s (12.5--50MBYTES/s)
  Wide Ultra2 SCSI: 80MBYTES/s
  Ultra3 SCSI: 80MBYTES/s
  Wide Ultra3 SCSI: 160MBYTES/s
  FC-AL Fiber Channel: 100-400MBYTES/s
