[OT] Mac PPC and USB2 ?

[-= JB =-]

I did not know about that one,  very nice.  One thing about the
other is it works with IDE/ATAP which I think is the main drive
in the G4 so it can be used to update a drive and then swap
it out with the old smaller drive, at least that is what I think it
can help out in.
