But with the being little or no price difference between getting a box with just
USB and getting a box that has both interfaces built in, I'd just buy the combo
box and have the best of both worlds. Where USB falls on its face is when
multiple devices on the usb bus are being used. Forget about using an external
hard drive and external USB video capture device at the same time.
