Hello,
I just plugged in some USB devices into my old 133Mhz laptop with

OpenBSD on it and they magically work. These devices would not work

and/or had problems on Winblows with the laptop.. yet on the desktop

they USB devices worked fine. So as I say.. compliments, and thanks.
Question about buttons and knobs..

What exactly is a knob?
I ask because on a Door, a knob is very useful for getting the door

open.. if the door didn't have a knob I'd have to stick my finger or a

credit card into the latch area and get it open.
Is a knob an extra feature that doesn't really add anything much better,

but is just there for the sake of being trendy? Is a knob a wrapper in

some cases? For example is IFUP/IFDOWN a knob? Is a symlink a knob since

that is essentially an extra directory that isn't necessarily needed

since you could just be simple and use the actual file instead.. I think

some 'wrappers' are useful so I hope all wrappers are not knobs.. I

think maybe I have the definition of a knob wrong.J
Having two knobs on a door is stupid, unless one knob is for a really

short person who is 1 foot tall and the other knob is for the 5 foot

person).
I know I'm being a knob asking what a knob is, but I seriously want to

know exactly what a knob or button is. Yes I googled it and basically

all I found was a knob is when someone implements something that doesn't

seem to be the best solution or the knob doesn't really add any extra

enhancement. But on a door, a knob is quite needed.. so..  flamebaits

aside.. I'd like technical knob discussion please. As an API author I

try to reduce complexity.. but sometimes making wrappers around an API

might add a knob around it to make it simpler. For example the CP

command is just a knob for copy..
