Microsoft is pushing us toward USB ports and away from other technology. 
The operating system is being changed to make this so.  Loss of LPT is
the first step.  Cab Com be far behind??

As to freezing PC's... this is part of the W9X and new Windows version of
NT (W 2000 and XP) culture.  I have W95 V2 and W98V2, and XP and all lock
up from time to time.  Its frustrating and there are few alternatives.  I
still have a W3.1 Compaq and this very seldom froze up even with
pagemaker and ISP software.   Go figure.
