I bought this for a desktop but found it more useful on my notebook with only three available ports. An external mouse and hard drive leave just one open for this thing.
10% of the final price goes to charity. That's commendable
Interesting, but why not double check some other items that might be better priced. 10% charity from $3.99 ain't much.

I'm concerned about the speed that 1 port can send through 4 devices
In for one!
Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you've got a stew going.
@abramokids: i agree, you can't hook multiple hard drives or cd drive at same time like the description suggests.
@abramokids: I have a USB 4 port drive that I use now, and it works just fine. I am running an external hard drive, a web cam, a multimedia card reader, and the last one is empty at the moment. I have noticed no reduction in speed at all. I ordered this one because when I was rearranging my room, I had the USB unplugged, and stepped on it. :( Broke one of the ports! This should be a perfect replacement!
OK - it's a half octopus -- quadropus?? In for 1 anyway.
They couldn't use the term squid, as in example: power squid.
Anyway, I use one of these at work, but mine has 2 connections for the computer-1 is for the usb power transfer.
