David, in about two weeks we're going to make "usb2" or "hpsusb" ( :) )
the default, if things go well we're planning on cleaning it up
and making it just "usb" within a few weeks after that.

Let's not do this now though as we'll just wind up having to
do it twice.  Rest assured we will get to it shortly.
