What Is USB?

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus, and it's the technology that features one "universal" plug type for all USB-to-peripheral connections. Translation: installing and using USB-ready computer peripherals is easier than you ever dreamed possible.

Can everyone use USB-ready products?

Users of the Windows 98 and MacOS 8.5 operating systems are ahead of the game. Every USB-ready peripheral can be automatically detected, installed, and configured (with the appropriate drivers) if the computer running these operating systems has USB ports. Stuck with only one port? Hubs can turn that one port into several. Got an older computer with no USB port? Converters and serial converters can get you in the game by making a plug-in-and-go connection possible.
