The USB 2 you see advertised might not be USB 2 at
all. Apparently because of demands for USB 2, the USB Implementation Forum decided to call the MUCH slower USB 1.1 (which
has been out for a long time now, and universially known as USB 1.1 which tops out at 12 Mb/sec)
the same name as the real USB 2 (480 Mb/sec). To get around the little fact that it's completely fradulant, they designate the
12 Mb/sec USB as "USB 2 Full Speed" and the 480 Mb/sec USB as "USB 2 Hi-Speed". How something can be more speedy if it's already full
doesn't make sense to begin with, and because people just zero in on the USB 2 part, everyone from manufacturers to consumers
don't relieze what's happening. Hopefully they'll get in trouble for this, but until then, if you want to make sure you have the
real USB 2.0, be sure to specify whether it's "Full Speed" or "Hi-Speed" USB 2.
I don't remember ever hearing about Funky Fries
so I guess it's little suprise they've done so poorly. I mean who wouldn't want to try a chocolate flavored french fry? Or one
that's blue? It's like that awesome green ketchup that they used to have, where you could make your hotdog/hamburger into a canvas
for color. No one seems to have fun with their food anymore.
Speaking of food, if you're ever hungry, you've gotta try to Pizza Sandwhich. It's a sandwhich... and it's a pizza! Is there
anything better? (the answer is no). Anyways, there's a more formal recipe around the net, but I personally just lightly toast
two slices of bread, add some mozzarella cheese and you're choice of topping (my favorite being pepperoni) and then
thrown on a hot pan or press until the cheese melts. You can also add tomato sauce, but I didn't like it with it on.
