Reviews

[Kaspars Laizans · Rating 4 out of 5]

Windows driver part might be a bit dated, but standard is generally still relevant and basics are explained reasonably well.

So this is the definitive guide to doing anything technical with USB. The author does a good job with a very hard subject...but it's not 'light reading' by any means.
