As far as I can determine, Sony didn't publish anything remotely resembling a manual for this machine; aside, of course, from a quickstart pamphlet about how to point a click a few things in Windows XP (entirely useless). I did get a lot of ads for accessories as well. > I'm thinking maybe only one port provides power, after all half > an amp on each port could drain the batteries of a laptop very > quickly. I suppose that's a possibility. But, if so, it'd be amazing if I wasn't given to opportunity to override this. Hmm..., you know, it *is* the usb jack nearest the power jack. It could just be hardwired that way. Anyway, I don't really think this answers Stephen's points about irqs and about usb2.0 being disabled. -- Steve Jones "Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend.
