Tom, I have been looking for a computer for to use for a PICO, will buy a used one... can USB2 be dowloaded or is it a hardware that comes with a PC? I ask because I saw that you can download USB2 drivers. I though I might buy an otherwise worthy unit and convert it?

Fisher,

USB2 PCM/CIA cards have been used but I recommend that you be sure to get a laptop with native USB2.  The other resources will be more up to date also.

From my own experience with PC/MCIA Cards, I would say get a laptop with native USB 2 as Tom said...

the other advantage of this is that this laptop would be newer and hence have a faster CPU and bigger HDD/DRAM.
