Universal Serial Bus Ports
The three Universal Serial Bus 2.0 ports (USB) allow you to connect USB devices such as external floppy
disk drives, external DVD drives, game pads, pointing devices, keyboards and/or speakers. USB 2.0 is
downward-compatible with USB 1.1 devices, so older USB devices will work with these ports. USB 2.0
is a much faster design, running forty times faster than USB 1.1.
