From the article:

"IT'S NOT EVERYWHERE. Support for USB 3.0 was added to the Linux kernel
last September, and the first hardware controllers and devices appeared
at this year's Consumer Electronics Show show in January. But it's still
an emerging technology. Microsoft hasn't implemented it in Windows yet,
though it's rumored to be coming soon in the first service pack for
Windows 7. Intel doesn't plan to support it until 2011."

USB3 cards were already for sale. This is an example of the driver
package for it.

"NEC Electronics Corporation USB3.0 Controller Driver V1.0.19.0
for Windows 32/64bit XP & 32/64bit Vista & 32/64bit Windows 7.(WHQL)"

So yes, people own them, and are using them.

Intel doesn't plan to deliver a *chipset* with USB3 integrated, but
the NEC USB3 chip, with two USB3 ports, has been shipping for
some months now. You can get it on motherboards (chipset provides
USB2 ports, NEC chip gives two more USB3 ports). You can get
the chip on a PCI Express card. It's available. This combo
card, for example, is a good deal from a price point of view.
It has the NEC chip on it, as well as a disk controller chip.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813995004

Or, you can get a USB3 only card, with a driver CD as well.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815150161

http://images17.newegg.com/is/image/newegg/15-150-161-Z05?$S640W$

The question now is, what peripheral is good enough, to justify
buying one. You can bet the first peripherals for sale,
aren't going to be very good ("bug city" or poor performance).
It'll take time, before we see some second generation USB3
peripherals, that make buying a card worthwhile.

I would expect one of the first peripherals to be flash card readers. USB
2 is plenty slow when transferring many megabytes of raw camera images
and firewire readers are expensive with limited availability.

My motherboard has USB 3.0 support, and the driver CD has a USB3 driver,
so I don't see the lack of USB 3.0 support in Windows 7 "out of the box"
as a significant disadvantage. So far I have no USB3 devices, but
Seagate offers USB 3.0 interfaces for its GoFlex and GoFlex Desk
external drives, and I am tempted.

I think I read that even USB 2.0 device transfer data faster when
connected to a USB 3.0 port.

BULLSHIT. I have a Gigabyte motherboard that supports USB 3.0 and drivers
are included so of course it will work with Windows 7 you FUCKWIT.

If you use that SHITTY Ubuntu, you would be lucky to copy anything within
the week!

Stay far far away from Linux. They can't give that crap away! Oops.

File transfers are much faster with Linux than Windows. That's a

It's called unable to read what is actually written.
When you buy a USB 3.0 device, what are the odds the manufacturer includes a
device driver for Windows?
Pretty fuckin high, as that's 90% of the market.
Still no guarantee Linux will actually run the device, it will simply know
you plugged something into the port.

Frank can watch it too.
Laughing is good for everyone.

Speaking of laughing:
Your boyfriend is so hairy, Bigfoot takes pictures of him.

Alias and Frank,

I hope you two realize this newsgroup isn't for or about you children,
right?

I wish (and I know I'm not alone) you'd both get a room, kiss and make
up and fade away.

The picture you've painted of yourselves to the world reading Usenet is
at best ugly.

TGIF.

Andy

They are far too stupid to realize this. Best to keep kill-filing them and
ignoring threads they are involved in.
