i know very little about network protocols, and even less about that USB
thingy that comes standard on most PC's these days, but a thought occured
to me:

would it be possible to use USB for networking? from what i've heard, the
speed of USB is similar to 10 Mbit ethernet. if this idea could work,
then our PC's could be networked w/out having to buy NIC's.

just a thought.
