Linux To Be First OS To Support USB 3.0

An anonymous reader writes with an excerpt from Neowin.net "Sarah Sharp, a self-styled 'geekess' and Linux developer at Intel's Open Source Technology Center who has recently been working on the Linux USB subsystem, announced on her blog that support of USB 3.0 will soon be integrated into the Linux kernel. This makes Linux the first operating system to support the standard. If you can't wait and have the expertise necessary, she includes instructions on how to get USB 3.0 support in Linux now." Here's Sharp's post.

I was waiting for USB3 support! Now all my USB3 devices will work in Linux but not in Windows. Drivers? What are they? Oh and when can I buy a USB4 powered reading light?

Actor is the correct word for both male and female.

I don't think this is a troll, i mean, i thought it too. I have modpoints, but... well.... it's not troll.... it's not insightful.... not funny, over, or underrated, not particularly interesting, not necessarily flamebait, not redundant, certainly not informative, being a question.... but not *quite* offtopic either... sigh....

can I get a "-1 lame" mod?
