Nice little product WORKS WELL FOR ME Having ordered a new Dell Notebook I soon realised that three USB internal hubs were not enough so fortunately this was the first Belkin product i purchased. It is very neat and compact and for the basic computer work such as email and Ebaying that i do it serves its purpose beautifully,and over the six months i have used mine it has never let me down.The lovely glow that emits from each port that is being used is a nice addition and very soothing at night. Possibly if you use much more powerfull... more info
Works if not loaded - under powered and too light Nice little hub, gets the job done, supports USB2 speeds well. Supports 4 devices if none draw much power - BUT it is incapable of supporting more than 2 peripherals that require more than very slight amounts of power via the hub (indeed once I have a Speedtouch ADSL modem on it I can't power anything else).

Not a good buy This hub allows you to connect up to 4 1.1 or 2.0 USB devices to a single USB port on your computer.

The hub is very small, and they can stack on top of each other, but... more info
Not very impressed at all We have a couple of these at work, both connected to Power Mac G4s. Every time the machine boots, the hubs forget about all the devices. The hub has to be powered down and back up again.
When our next IT order goes out, I'm replacing them both. Complete waste of money.
