Does the job, and looks good too.

Amazon Verified Purchase
Sonnet's USB solution is a generic 32-bit PCI card that utilizes the NEC chipset, which seems to be a little more stable than some of the other manufacturers out there. Windows recognizes the card right away and has it installed and running in a matter of seconds. 4 USB ports external and one internal. The only thing that would have made this card perfect would be to have a header instead of a "A" jack for the internal connection.
If you're looking for a USB card with a the NEC chipset, and a mask color that's going to look like the picture (the royal purple of these cards looks good in a windowed case) then this is the card for you.

Deep Sleep compatibility
26 Feb 2008
One issue that has plagued add-in USB cards for the Macintosh for years is problems with power saving. Either the computer will not sleep, will crash on waking or sleeping, or it will lose contact with the card and attached devices. This card, when used with Mac OS 10.5.2 specifically, seems to eliminate these problems. According to email from Sonnet support, this was fixed in the 10.5 beta, broken in 10.5 and 10.5.1, and now works properly. My G5 will enter deep sleep, and wake correctly, even with a USB floppy drive connected and a disk in the drive. Will other cards now work properly? Maybe, but so far only Sonnet has actually said so in writing. I'm very happy!

Installed in a G4 1 gig. Basically bought it to increase tranfer speeds to my iPod -- no issues whatsoever, including sleep mode.
