I don't have enough experience with USB to know whether it makes a good network pipe. I'd be curious to know what the datalink layer looks like. How much data can it transfer per interrupt? With a NIC you're going to get an IP packet per interrupt (in general.) It doesn't save them that much money. You can get a decent NIC for <$10 at Frye's. It might not be a bad idea to pick up a NIC and have it handy when they show up. I had one, so they just used it. (I also made him leave me the one they brought as a standby.) Anyone using USB networking?
