Yes, and you can still put a USB 2 hub on the other port and run other USB devices with it, so it is the perfect peripheral upgrade addition to an old box.

I would prefer the short jump power levels of the BT to the higher power cell carriers. I think they operate in a burst styled transmit paradigm too, no?

OK, Archie, I said that if the guy's old computer did not have USB that I doubt it would have a PCI Express slot.
Prove me wrong, then, dipstick!
Find a popular main board that's old enough that it didn't even have USB 1.0 yet it has a PCI Express slot!
Find some old as hell 100 MHz junker with no USB and it probably don't have a PCI Express slot.
Prove me wrong, Archie!

If the computer is old enough to not HAVE any USB port built in, then it also would not be new enough to have a PCI Express slot which is REQUIRED for a USB 3.0 card.
ie He probably cannot use a USB 3.0 card in his computer.
His PCI slots might not even be PCI 2.1 compliant. Is that required to get a USB 2.0 card to work?
