 Great Device March 8, 2004

This is a great product at a great price. I bought one of these for my laptop to add to the number of USB ports available. I liked it so much, I bought another for my desktop to simply make the ports more accessible. The supplied cord is plenty long to reach the desktop on the floor and then I simply Velcro'ed the Targus to my desk to make plugging and unplugging USB devices much more convenient. The Targus works right out of the box, no install required and it works on every computer I've tried -- no problems. I must confess, the blue LED's look pretty cool too!
It works perfectly! December 31, 2002

I love this product!
I read the reviews of all the hubs and was confused about what would work and what wouldn't and "powered" vrs "un-powered"...
So I decided to buy a cheap, un-powered hub and see if it worked and go from there.
It works perfectly!
I have a 2-yr old PC running Windows 98 second edition.
I only have two USB ports and was ready to buy a new PC just to get more ports since every peripheral nowadays uses USB.
A friend told me about USB hubs--essentially an extension cord for your USB ports.
I plugged-in the Targus (the blue lights are cool), and plugged into the Targus the following--internet cable modem, scanner, DVD burner, and MP3 player. I rebooted (probably not necessary, but it never hurts), and everything is totally cool.
Now, I'll get another year out of this PC before I upgrade and I WILL keep the Targus hub--it saved Christmas!
Great, compact usb hub for mobile or desktop users! September 13, 2002

This is an excellent usb hub for the price. Very compact and very light. It doesn't take up too much space at all. Also, it's powered thru USB so you do not need to deal with an AC adaptor. I have a couple of USB devices that are powered through the USB port as well and my concern was whether they would still be active through this hub. I plugged both into the hub and both were powered up!! And the 4 ports light up with a nice blue led color that's looks really cool!! Targus should show this in their ads/marketing material because it definitely makes the hub look much cooler! This is a great bargain and perfect for people that need a simple & compact USB hub for all their gadgets. Definitely recommended!!
Better than my old Belkin model January 30, 2006

It's speedy and space saving and inexpensive. I bought this to replace my Belkin because the Belkin needed to be plugged in. This one is powered by your computer so there's no extra power cords, which is a big plus to me.
The only thing I dislike about this is the fact that the Hub takes up two Usb ports instead of just one like the Belkin.
Excellent little product! December 6, 2002

With Win Xp, just plug and go, no problems whatsoever. The ports do light up with blue LEDs, making it look even cooler than in the pictures. I highly reccomend this USB hub.
