I'm just curious because I'm using four. I just want to know if anyone is using all of 'em

I'm using four for two external hard drives, an optical mouse and a keyboard.

That's the wonderful thing about the XPS-2 and 9300 chasis, six USB ports come in real handy.

Hopefully for the next iterations of these laptops, they include two Firewire 800 ports.

Mouse
Numeric keypad
External DVD burner

I use a 4-port hub though for the hard drives, keypad, and mouse.
