I've found that a good way to gauge speed difference between usb 1/1.1 and
usb 2 is to use a flash drive / thumbdrive or other media card, and transfer
large files. I shuttle files to and from home on a usb 2.0 thumbdrive.
Transfering a 32mb file on the usb 1.1 computer in my wifes room vs my
laptop or desktop with 2.0 is a noticeable difference.
