Monitor USB hub

[BigAl]

I have a 17" LG Flatron (has been discussed on another thread) which has a built-in USB hub. I always thought monitor USB hubs were gimmicks until I bought a digital camera. I now have 3 USB devices, and its such a pleasure to use that hub. The only downside with the Flatron's hub is that it's at the back of the monitor (mainframe mentality remains with PC hardware developers ).

Yes Chuck, I can see how useful that would be. With a further USB device (with different plug to device), it's very easy to unplug one cable and plug in the next. I have to go crawling around the back of the monitor

Thanks for the idea Chuck, but I'm Ok with the monitor hub (in spite of the inconvenience) for the devices I have at the moment.
