Better saying: in Mac OS X, there's drivers for both EHCI and OHCI cards, but classic Mac OS jsut recognizes the OHCI. To distiguish between EHCI and OHCI: All EHCI cards are based on a VIA central chip. All other brands are OHCI. So, generally talking, pick up any non-VIA USB card and you'll be OK in Mac OS 8/9 and Mac OS X. -- MaGioZal. <http://magiozal.mondo-exotica.net/> <http://suq-al-manakh.mondo-exotica.net/> <http://blog.lugaralgum.com/> <http://fotolog.net/_magiozal/> <http://flickr.com/photos/magiozal/> -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
