Busted!




It seems like things are breaking on me a lot lately. This just happens to be one of them. The USB cable that I use to charge my iPhone is shown here with newly exposed wires. It still works, but I'm not risking it. I can dig another one up somewhere I'm sure.

Man down

So the USB hub I talked about here, has ceased to function. Fortunately my iMac has 5 USB ports which will do in a pinch, but I had every one of the 7 ports on this filled up. The time is now to hunt for another one. It will probably be another week or so because I am going out of town this week. You'll be the first to hear about the new one.

A hub too small


Apparently I have a lot to say about my little office in my basement. My primary work computer is my MacBook Pro. It only has 2 USB ports on it and one is for some unknown reason not working. Well I have a USB hub for obvious reasons. I have a keyboard, a mouse, my iPhone charger, printer, and two external hard drives. Well that leaves just one open spot. It's usually taken up by either the Flip Video camera or my still camera's memory card reader. This makes it impossible if I want to say edit photos and video(not uncommon). Or say I need to transfer something via a flash drive. I never thought I'd need this many ports, but apparently my USB is the place to be. I think it's time for a desktop replacement.
