Quick USB port count

[kingandy]

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.

You need USB Launched Rockets.

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.
