| 121545 | 2003-02-15 21:58:00 | Just wondering.... If an accessory (eg scanner) has USB 2.0 support. Is it still compatible with the older USB 1.0 or are they a totally different beast all together. I am looking at a scanner and the best ones are all USB 2.0. Thanks in advance. |

| 121546 | 2003-02-15 22:36:00 | Yes. USB 2.0 devices are backwards-compatable with USB 1.0/1.1. | utopia (2200) | ||
| 121547 | 2003-02-15 23:08:00 | I was in the same boat.Bought scanner which is usb2 compatible,but ok with usb1,to have a usb2 card fitted was approx $100,which would give me a quicker system,but I declined for the meantime. | Thomas (1820) | ||

| 121549 | 2003-02-16 19:22:00 | Are the USB1 and USB2 connections the same, or do you have to buy an adapter? | roofus (483) | ||
| 121550 | 2003-02-16 19:24:00 | Connections are exactly the same but there might be a difference in the cables as I have seen USB cables with the USB 2 logo stickers on them and some without. | CYaBro (73) | ||
