Ones and Zeros: Why Aren't more 4 port hubs made to look like Godzilla?

Why Aren't more 4 port hubs made to look like Godzilla?

August 21, 2003	Computers and Software
CharisMac - Firewire Dino Now it's easy to say "No, we certainly don't need a four port hub that's shaped liked Godzilla, and for the love of all that's sane, we don't want to think about where you plug in the auxiliary power connector. However, there are certainly many folks who have action figures on their desks who also need 4 ports hubs. "iPod? Plug it into Godzilla, just under the CD Burner." Give the option of a 4 port Hubzilla or a boring hub, which would you choose? Isn't it obvious? Now if they'll only release a Bambi USB 2.0 hub, the future will be assured.

So I was just thinking that I needed to go buy a firewire hub, what with my external drive, digital camera, and my soon-to-be-purchased iPod. (I can't WAIT!) I may just have to consider this as my hub option. Thanks for the heads up!
