WTF indeed. "But most importantly this will make USB safer and easier to use by bringing it to the Web." Has USB ever been dangerous? :laugh: But look, don't be too hard on this guy, he is trying to build his Microsoft career on this crap.

Right, so its an RNDIS USB device that gives the PC a new route to its IP address, and sniffs for cookies. Now tell me, how is 'WEB USB' going to make that any safer?

I don't think either of us were saying that connecting USB to the net would make it any safer. We're just responding to your question:

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question? The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism. Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
It sounds like they're talking about USB drivers for Linux. I haven't had to go to a website to download a USB driver for Windows in years. Many years. But just try and get some USB device on Linux to work, yeah, 3 days and 15 drivers later, it still doesn't work. Marc
