    On Acer site the specification for 4000 and 4500 says 3xUSB2 ports

    But when my friend checked it with Sisoft sandra on 4000series it reports only one port with USB2 (480Mbps) and and the remaning two as USB 1.1 (12Mbps)
    (I thing the 4000 and 4500 share common motherboard so its gonna be same across all the 3 series)

    Have any one connected some High speed device(USB2) and checked if all the ports are USB2 as Acer says in specification

    TM 4000 and 4500 series owners please give your input
