BUT....following that reasoning, an internet connection is very very rarely
over 1 mbps, usually 300kbps. And since you can theoretically attach 225
USB peripherals to a machine you are using very little. This also assumes
that Cy has not put in a USB2 card that has a throughput of 420 mbps. I
don't you would see any difference at all in your connection.
