Most of the time a USB 2.0 device will work on a USB 1.1 bus just fine, albeit at USB 1.1 speeds. I have run into a few USB 2.0 devices that "Mean It!", but not in quite a while. In my experience they were very early USB 2.0 devices, like DVD burners. -- Bruce Johnson "Wherever you go, there you are" B.
