Subject: live power to usb cable
Date: Thu, 20 May 2004 15:45:30 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1085082330.8372.43.camel@amsa> (raw)

On my USB cables that have connectors on both ends, one end is live when
the other end is plugged into the computer.  I can get a pretty decent
shock from the other end of the cable.  This seems kind of dangerous. 
Am I barking up the wrong tree here or is this an issue that should be
fixed?
