    It's probably just how the rest of us are looking and listing stuff. For example, I have 5 computers that I use regularly in my house. My Windows 7 rig is the strongest, but likely least used box. (it's in the basement and I have a family with 2 young kids).

    So, I only mentioned the things currently plugged into my Windows 7 box (keyboard,mouse and UPS). However, I have 3 external hard drives in my home, a Blackberry, my wife has an iPhone, we have a Kindle, I have a GPS, I have a scanner on another machine, a photo printer on another one, a laser printer hanging off my server, a webcam that i use occassionally, and a flight stick that I used to use for Flight Sims. Each of my computers is attached to it's respective UPS as well

    So, don't worry...I'm sure you aren't alone.

    4 ports, and nothing connected at all times. I only use them for my Zune, digital camera, and various things. Then again, this is my laptop.

    The thing is I'm in the same situation as you. God knows how many PCs are in my house now and most of them don't have a port to spair (webcams, printers,wireless USB devices , USB DVR boxes, Keyboards and mice etc. as well as a multitude of cameras, sat navs and phones that my family own!

    Thanks for trying to levy my cocerns.
