G4 MDD & EXPANDING USB 2.0

I need another USB 2.0 on my G4 (or two). Do I need to buy a powered USB 2.0 hub? Are there any that aren't supported on the G4 MDD? Do the newer apple keyboards include a USB 2.0 socket? Can I use a newer keyboard with my G4? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received

Thanks Len! I had not checked this thread for a long time, but this is really archive-worthy info, especially as the Chipmunk site doesn't give specs for the G4. Geke --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for t

Re: Sleep issue on G4 DA

I think that there is a jumpering of the CPU card that needs to be done. I've googled with only clues to be found. http://www.everymac.com/upgrade_cards/powerlogix/powerforce_g4_233/powerforce_g4_233_800.html http://www.hardmac.com/articles/5/page1 On Nov 2, 1:41 am, Stewie de Young wrote: > Don'
