Belkin 4-Port Swivel USB Hub

Comments about Belkin 4-Port Swivel USB Hub:

I AM USING IT WITH AN APPLE LAPTOP COMPUTER. SPACE IS LIMITED AND I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND IT FOR A LAPTOP.
THE MULTIPLE USB PORTS ARE GREAT.

THE FLEXIBILITY IS NOT AS GOOD AS EXPECTED.IN FACT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ROTATE IT A PORTION OF THE PLASTIC COVER BROKE OFF. IT STILL WORKS BUT I WON'T KNOW THE EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE UNTIL I FINISH THIS SURVEY AND UNPLUG IT AND EXAMINE IT.

Comments about Belkin 4-Port Swivel USB Hub:

Belkin's Swivel Hub is perfect for a laptop or a desktop. My desktop has three USB ports on the back of the all-in-one monitor/cpu. I wanted to see if I could free some desk space and this filled the bill to the letter. I use it as a dumb hub, sans AC power, with a printer, which is AC powered, and wireless mouse, battery powered, connected to the hub. The devices work fine--no lag, no question of whether or not the devices are properly connected; and when the computer is put to 'sleep' and brought back on line or restarted from a warm shut down, the devices comes up at restart--it works! Excellent device with a zero footprint. Belkin has a winning product.By configurable I mean the device can be physically configured, it swivels in both X and Y axis. And, the hub sits out about 1.75" from the the port when inserted, i.e., it doesn't interfere with the wires coming out of the other USB ports and can easily be swiveled, or it can be left positioned straight out from the port. I had been using the [...] brand 4-port powered USB hub and it has been working fine; but I really wanted to reclaim some real estate on my desk, hence the move to this Belkin, the only one of its kind.
