    I have downloaded the spec. (it can be found here)
    They change the connectors.
    There will be new style data (that was expected) but also power (not expected) connectors. Thus you'll have to change power supply.
    It seems though that they made the connectors so that devices will be capable of hot-plug (some connections are longer than other, just like for USB. There is also a standard positioning (so that there will be a standard type of disk drawer, building on the "hot plug" apparent capability)

    I think most of the criticism of Nazi memorabilia centers around the fact that its used by radical right wing organizations whose ideals are antithetical to the multicultural, one-world agenda shared by most radical and not-so-radical left wingers.
    and that countering any collecting of it centers around the fact that its used by radical jewish organisations (blabla, copy and paste the end of the above here)

    Then why the f**k they have those old german planes over in the aviation museum at Le Bourget...
    the UEJF (Union of French Jewish Students) should have these removed too, and also all those museums about WWII and why not, remove all the tumbs there (I mean the german ones, with the swastika on them...)
    and maybe crash and burn all indians, as the swastika is a religious symbol there...
    No, the real solution is to dissolve the UEJF...
