Recent Macs Have Built-in USB 2.0

Posted by pudge on from the taking-your-word-for-it dept.

RalphBNumbers writes "According to a forum thread at CreateMac, a Korean Mac community, the newer MDD 1.25 and 1.42 GHz dual G4s actually use a NEC PD720101 USB 2.0 controller for their built-in USB. Apple's drivers only support USB 1.x, but you can apparently enable USB 2.0 functionality by using the drivers for a USB 2.0 card from Orange Micro that uses the same NEC controller. YMMV." Is there a translation of any of this, somewhere?

    As a US citizen I want the same rights as Iraqi citizens have now. Like the right to loot or to kill who I please.

    If you want to go to Iraq I believe you'll find your govt does grant you those 'additonal rights'. You are simply discouraged from doing it at home. Of course your govt also reserves the right to kill you - at home or abroad. Lucky you eh.

    All these buildings are yours-- except the Ministry of Oil. Attempt no lootings there.
