I don't believe it is. I was given the impression by someone in the
know...(at least in the know more than I)...that the Beige G3's were not
compatible with USB 2 for one reason or another. But, since I only know
enough to get myself in trouble...I could easily have been misinformed.

Will there be any limitations beside speed issues if I stick with the older
USB? In my case, as a now ex-Boeing employee, and starting back to school
next week...budget is the priority...and speed is only a convenience.

I'd already figured on snagging the Toast software. Thanks for your input!!
