Instead of making a new thread, figured i'd add in here.
It's somewhat within the same topic anyway. tongue.gif

Does anyone have experience with running long lengths of USB cable? I want to run from the computer in the trunk to a DVD drive in the dash, so I figure i'll need about 15 feet of USB cable.
I saw this on ebay, but i'm a little skeptical. Thoughts?

"The end of the cable has a signal repeater/booster that strengthens the signal at its weakest point."

Boosters won't hurt. It might be a better idea. I've used extension USB cables in the past and linked a couple together, but never in a car.
