Why Powered USB Is Going to Fail

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the gloom-and-doom dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Patrick McFarland, famous Free Software Magazine author, has written a two part article about why Powered USB is not taking off at home. (part 2 is also available) He includes a lengthy history on why USB took off in the first place, and then continues on to explain what we gain by allowing Powered USB to power all our devices."

      From the tone of your message, it's pretty clear that your only experience of "eating out" consists of Applebee's and The Olive Garden.

      Give it up; she's just not that into you.

      Simple, tell that girl you are not woth it and the reason is you are too stupid to exist. The way to please her is to take a razor and slit your fucking wrists right in front of her. Once you have bled to death in front of her she will applaud.

      There, you will have pleased her and no one will have to put up with fucktards like you.

    If you don't know what Cmd-Shift-1 and Cmd-Shift-2 are for, GTFO.
    If you think Firefox is a decent Mac application, GTFO.
    If you're still looking for the "maximize" button, GTFO.
    If the name "Clarus" means nothing to you, GTFO.

    Bandwagon jumpers are not welcome among real Mac users. Keep your filthy PC fingers to yourself.
