Laptop needs more USB ports....

[Testosterone boy]

Mine only has two USP ports and I would like 3 or 4 of them.

Know of a good, inexpensive solution?

H-P xt1155 I believe...if that matters.

mine has 3 USB and a couple avi, what you need all those for? actually mine are mostly filled up too with printer, mouse, etc...

USB hubs.

You can daisy chain up to 254 or so usb devices out a single port.

Printer, mouse, Wacom writing tablet, and camera if I ever find it.

What SoreArms said. Hubs are relatively cheap as well.
I don't know if each USB port can go out to 255 in total (including itself), or if each USB controller can do that.

Doesn't matter in the end since the number you need is less than 255.

I slept until 3pm today, so I'm not tired yet.
But should probably go in and just force myself to go to sleep and then get up closer to noon tomorrow just so that I won't be dead next week.

I'm fairly bored now and I want to get up in time to get some shit done tomorrow.

my only accomplishments today were my taxes and a game of Trivial Pursuit.

Slow day due to ultra crummy weather. Booked a wedding though and am still batting 1.000 so far this year with wedding presentations.

I did something like this a few years ago....raised my prices.....and quit booking folks. So I am leery of raising my prices until I have to start turning a lot of people down.
