Hi Linda,
I'll give you the good news first: most new computers come
with a minimum of 6 USB 2.0 ports on them. ALL USB 2.0 ports are "backwardly
compatible" with USB 1.0 & USB 1.1 devices. This means that you can safely
purchase ANY device with a USB connector, and it will work with your computer.
Now for the bad news... wait, there isn't any. You see if
you have a USB with your computer - it just won't work at the faster speed of
2.0. Hmmm, the news seems to
just get better. Let's say that you've already purchased a version 1.0 jump
drive (or thumb drive if you prefer), it will STILL work on your new computer's
USB port - it will just work at a slower speed.
I love it when there isn't any downside!
