823036 2009-10-22 08:42:00 Hey my mate has an old toshiba laptop and it has USB 1 and he was messaging me saying that he was hating the speed of copying off the flash drive. So he was thinking of making a contraption that plugs into both usb ports and then you plug the flash drive into the end of it to get USB 2.0. Promptly fell off my chair laughing so hard (after I asked him if he was serious). nedkelly (9059)
823037 2009-10-22 08:51:00 Can't deny the logic:
USB1 + USB1 = USB2

However it's USB 1.1 which makes USB2.2 :confused:

:rolleyes:

823040 2009-10-22 08:55:00 if he gets that to work he could be a very rich man, but i think waiting for usb3 is the better option lol hueybot3000 (3646)
823041 2009-10-22 09:01:00 na talked him out of it saying that if anything broke I would not fix it and it would cost.
Funny thing is he is not blonde (I am though) he is a carrot top (no offence to people who also are)

823043 2009-10-22 09:17:00 Hmmmmmmmm- I have 10 USB ports on this thing, daisy chain them to 1 and I'll have USB10 - why bugger around with USB 2 or 3 :lol: wainuitech (129)
823044 2009-10-22 09:23:00 You will probably need a good logo quite soon - maybe 10 asterisks?
Done roughly enough, you could charge someone a fortune. ;)

However, USB 10 is likely to be so fast, you will possibly find you had finished it before you even started. This calls for a super logo.

You may have one friend who needed your help.

As you thought to post the misfortune on here I would ask did you consult all your friends?

If you did not then I can only assume that you only have/had one friend.
