Yeah, everything is USB now and corporate America needs their BB. (course I have been thinking about getting a BB myself once I am back working and all that.)

I agree with Streaker, they need to offer the "Admin" packs of 100 or so. What would be even neater is if they had some piece of circuitry in it where a small program pushed on the system checks to see if they are there. If one is removed it lets you know WHOSE pc did it. The main server could be set up so that when your IT minions set it up, they input the system ID, and how many ports it has and how which ones have the locks. This way if some manager needs his BB, you can leave one open.

However, if one is left open, who is to stop them from bringing in a hub?
