How USB Ports Work?
|
by Marshall Brain, How Stuff Works
Just about any computer that you buy for your home or office today comes with one or more Universal Serial Bus connectors on the back. These USB connectors let you attach everything from mice to printers to your computer quickly and easily. The operating system supports USB as well, so the installation of the device drivers is quick and easy too. Compared to other ways of connecting devices to your computer (including parallel ports, serial ports and special cards that you install inside the computer's case), USB devices are incredibly simple! Visit HowStuffWorks.com to find out more.
