I have a Keyspan USB PCI card that I use for my graphics tablet. It's
great to have. Even though Wacam said they can't guarantee tablets
will work with USB cards and only support on board USB, they say that
to protect themselves, as maybe some cards won't work (I'd get good
name brand card). So don't worry about using a card. Just pop it in
in two seconds. With everything being USB now, it's good to have the
ports. Plus you can always add a hub if you need more ports. I don't
know if there is an adapter cable, and if there is, I don't know if
it would allow you to add ports with a hub.
