Ahh but it is a great example of why the Mac is such a great little
machine, especially the all-in-ones and the mini.  These machines
typically lack PCI slots.  Ohh, how terrible!  With ONLY USB2 and Firewire
(and Firewire 800 on the higher end things), how EVER are you going to
expand and upgrade your system?  hehe  That's easy, you're going to get
yourself a 7 port USB2 hub and a 5 port firewire hub and have yourself a
ball.
