This is not fully true. While Apple does not support USB 2.0, the OS *is* capable of 2.0 speeds. As it stands right now, you must use the drivers that came with the USB card to enable 2.0 speed. Otherwise it will work at only 1.1 speed. OS9 'could' be made to work with USB 2.0, but no one has made the appropriate drivers and it doesn't look like anyone is going to, at least not soon.
As proof, I have been running an IOGEAR USB 2.0 card for months now. It works just fine under 10.2 (I had already upgraded past 10.1.5, but it should work) at both 2.0 speed (Maxtor USB HD) and 1.1 speed. Much like our beloved UMAX machines, just because Apple says so, doesn't mean that it won't. -Robyn On Wednesday, January 1, 2003, at 01:10 PM, Late Are wrote: > As per Apple, USB 2 is not compatible with any Mac OS.
