...and yet we all remember in Independence Day when Jeff Goldblum connected his Apple Powerbook to an alien spacecraft, interfaced with it, and used it to deploy a virus and destroy the alien fleet. The movie was pretty far fetched, but many of us considered that this was the most unrealistic part of it, given that in those days when you'd have a pretty tough job getting an Apple computer to even talk to a printer that wasn't made by them! I wonder if the Star Wars universe ever managed to create a USB-A equivalent with less than three possible orientations from a two-sided connector?
