Howdy,
A hub is cheap, and works for a lot of things. What do you want to
plug in? Each USB hub on the computer can drive .5 amps. If you are
plugging in multiple devices that need power, you may need a powered hub
or the pci card.
Not all PCI USB cards work in the Mac. Look in the

Hello Thanks!,
I found this post when searching the group - looks like if i get a card with
the chipset NEC, ALI, TI or OPTI it should work. I should stay away from VIA
chipset (which seems to be in most cards based on preliminary google searches).

In general, the limitation most people come against is power and throughput.

So this has wildly gone in a direction that I don't have a need (or probably a
