I can hardly imagine needing 15 ports at the same time.

    meanwhile I'm overhere with...

    keyboard, mouse, camera, 4x flash drive, game controller, ebook reader, external storage disk, printer, VR headset, multimedia card reader, LED controller, my monitor (USBc display + hub + KVM) and my phone...

    ofcourse not all at the same time. but I have a mess of USB extensions and hubs as I don't have enough root Ports lol

    (Linux not hacintosh) I apparently couldn't run it if I wanted to.

    Doesn't exactly inspire confidence in your imagination.

    Well I am currently using about 5-6 ports on my PC and 2 of those are not really needed. I can imagine using a couple more but certainly not 15.

    I could fill them up but I don't have a scenario where I actually need that many things plugged in at the same time in the first place.

    The thing is though, every situation is different. I'm glad the designers of USB did not think like you do. Having the ability to use a lot of devices might be rare but it's definitely been needed before, whether or not others can imagine it.

    Fuck's sake I was just asking what they were using it for that they filled out 15 ports and everyone is attacking me for thinking 15 is too much or something.even though I never stated that

    The question wasn't a problem. The repeated implications that it's too many is obviously what annoyed people.

    I never implied it's too many. I just said I cannot think of a way to use 15 ports (as in my personal setup). Might not have been the most clear but never implied it.
