Do My Shopping For Me - The UnDoug - 04-08-2007

Well, not exactly...but I need (I guess) to get a powered USB hub to work with several USB things that--when plugged into my Planar monitor's usb ports, my Apple keyboard's USB port, or my mini USB hub (non-powered--at least there's no power cord)--either simply don't work, or cause a message to appear on the screen saying that I need to have more power or something.

What is a cheap powered USB 1 (or 1.1--2.0 isn't necessary, but perhaps I should get that in anticipation of getting a Mac with 2.0 soon) hub? I have no idea what to look for or where.

You want one of the powered ones.
