USB

The Universal Serial Bus is the past, connecting devices to computers has been a real headache
Printers connected to parallel printer ports, and most computers only came with one. Things like Zip drives, which need a high-speed connection into the computer, would use the parallel port as well, often with limited success and not much speed.
Modems used the serial port, but so did some printers and a variety of odd things like Palm Pilots and digital cameras.
List of USB devices that you can buy today includes:
1. Network connections
2. Scanners
3. Mice
4. Joysticks
5. Printers
6. Webcams
7. Digital cameras
8. Scientific data acquisition devices
9. Modems
10. Telephones
11. Speakers
12. Video phones
13. Storage devices such as Zip drives
