usb driver problem

[Bob Sneidar]

How then would the Mac OS know which modem port you were opening? How would it know you were talking about the USB port? There are older Macbooks and Desktops that actually have a modem as well as USB ports. I read the dictionary, but didn't see anything on how to actually specify the USB port. Just curious.
