Hi all,

Can anyone explain to me the difference between the square shaped USB 
connectors and the ones which are thinner and more rectangular?  Most of the 
ports on my PC here are the latter type, which is fine because things like my 
Book Courier and Sarah's Palmtop plug up via the rectangular type.  But I have 
a 4-way hub which only seems to accept the fatter square ones.  However, I 
don't have any pieces of kit which rely on these.  Does this mean the hub is of 
no use?

Cheers now.

Ian
