dual usb

check out my picture of a dual usb cable. this is similar to the cable I use with my printer. one end is the typical usb connector the other end is a smaller special configuration. the usb to usb cable that is on the "mail order" usb to usb cable has two of the rectangle connectors with an "egg" in the middle. what's in this "egg" is an opti-coupler as the signals from one computer to another may not be compatible with each other and you could burn out one or both computers if you use a direct - non isolated - conductor.
