Vista - Use of USB ports

Although I know it's not a new point I'm wondering if there's yet a sensible
solution to the use of USB ports in VPC 2007

ports in the host machine from a vm. You can try the third party USB over
Ethernet programs like Fabula Tech.

support either.

Thanks but tried that and couldn't get the demo program to detect the host so
didn't get very far

Vmware Workstation/Parallels Workstation/VirtualBox/Qemu are.

Vmware Server can sort of be considered in the same market since it's
free (It also supports USB).

USB and supporting hackish solutions like everyone else on this forum
and telling it like it is. It's one of my weaknesses.
