I have plugged USB devices into the network port of my PC and spent several minutes trying to work out what's wrong. In my defence I'd forgotten that it has two network ports, and so I assumed that since it was on the network already...
I just love how the ports are just the same width though! Don't know why I find that pleasing... but I do.

complained that his ipod wasn't charging and summoned me to see why the usb port wasn't working. He'd plugged it into some random cooling hole in the front of one of my server which has rows upon rows of these very same little holes. Numpty!
