Back of computer: 4
Front of computer: 2
Monitor (x2): 4

With two of the sockets at the computer rear taken up by the cables for the monitors[1], that's a potential total of 12 USB sockets right there. I'm using two (keyboard and mouse, going through the monitor for convenience).

I can't help but feel like I need more gadgets...

[1] That's for the monitor USB sockets only - there's a separate video cable. Who would use USB for a monitor connection? Don't be mental.

Yes, that and a coffee cup warmer. And probably a new psu, just in case the old one dies...

I want one!!! :P

But it'd mean getting the USB Bluetooth - and I can't lose another USB port! :P

Cool - but the practical applications of it (no feedback from the keys, no cushioning when you type because you're hitting a solid survace) put me off them.

They were on sale cheap in M&S last time I looked.

I want them!

My keyboard and printer and scanner and camera and web-cam and phone link all run off USB and I've only got 2 on the back of my computer! I've now got a 4 port hub (in one of the 2), but after having the keyboard, printer, scanner and webcam permenantly linked, that still only leaves one free for me to play with!

It's a bit naff, but works better than nothing... I've got an extension from the hub onto the desk so there's only one port visable and usable. Want More!!!

A USB hamster in a wheel that runs whenever you type.
