High-speed is actually low-speed, got it
Well, USB 2.0 did 480 MBit/s IIRC compared to USB 1.0 1.5 MBit/s and 1.1 12 MBit/s
Jeez they still fell short there. Why can't they just go through the whole thing mark every other speed.
Ibf it was high-speed at the time, we've just surprised it since... Super-duper speed.
Yeah, 480 Mbit/s really felt lightning fast at the time, especially considering where we came from with USB 1.0.
High Definition video is still 720p
