Now that I think, old machines without dvd might not have an usb port.
I had an old laptop (acer travelmate 12" - P266), with no dvd, neither cd (only pcmcia and not bootable) and it had USB. USB is pretty old, now
and decent (in this respect) computer are everyday sent to trash...
I have an old pentium-1, which the bios and MB says they have usb, linux sees it, but the box doesn't have the socket. At the time there was no use for "such a new useless gadget". It does have two serial ports, parallel port, joystick, etc. And two nics I added. And if i wanted, I could replace the CD writer with a broken dvd writer I have, which reads alright. Or even have both. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
