ok.......that 24 well...was..... ummmmmm...insert opinion here..... ;(

I've seen every episode of 24 from season 1 to tonight and I don't think any are bad. Some not as exciting as others, but I will miss this show when it ends forever this season (besides the movie to be made). Next week is a 2 hour event <drools> One of, if not the best, show ever made for TV.

Although Spartacus on Starz has captured my imagination.

<returning thread back to the original channel>

Don't you just hate a cliff hanger? I got started watching 24 when my brother brought the first 3 seasons on dvd back with him from a trip to China. We watched 3-5 episodes a night until we got through it all. 24 is much better when you can watch it back to back!

I was watching 24 also. We picked up the very first copy at Blockbuster thinking it was a movie. It left the ending up in there air and we complained about it to the manager when we returned it. The manager laughed at us and said this is season one first episode. So, we ended up getting the rest of them and watched all of them in 3 days straight. Great show, will miss it.

This may not be related, and I don't know much about USB current, but would the very old, original USB computer ports actually not be able to provide as much electrical current as the newer USB ports ?

Yes, v1John, this can definitely be a problem. The older 1.0 and 1.1 versions of USB almost never supply the current needed to make a pt work properly. Unfortunately, while the newer systems that have integrated USB 2.0 (and the new USB 3 standard which is just starting to trickle into the market) should provide ample power, there is no guarantee that they will.

Some setups have lower-than-spec power outputs and depending on the setup sometimes having other devices plugged into a system can lower the total available output which can cause problems as well. I tend not to plug my pt into my computer because I'm concerned about potential damage.

I use a usb / ac wall adapter or an ac powered USB 2.0 hub that is not plugged into my computer and get along well. Many folks don't have any problems when they attach a pt directly to their computers, but I'm not comfortable enough to do it myself.
