Yeah you just have to have the USB ports set right.

And the Windoze rules apply - USB port, not a hub (e.g., plug it in to your Mac, not the keyboard, etc). Not so much that it's a "Windows rule" as it is an issue with the hubs not being powered - they don't provide enough voltage across, etc.

Cool news. Apparently you can use (PPC users) Guest PC too, albiet bloody slow. Actually the whole virtual thing is a huge turnoff to me. I guess years of Virtual PC use will do that; Albeit obviously Parallel's solution seems to be mucho superior! Also, has anyone here tried or have any solutions with WINE or Crossover? I don't suppose it would work, but just curious.
