I can't even think of 5 USB devices that I would need plugged in at once.

The mouse and keyboard don't really count because they're necessities that everyone uses.

You can get an all-in-one printer/scanner/copier/fax.

The camera only needs to be plugged in for a second to load the pictures and then you remove it.

As for external CD-ROM drive and hardrive, only the mediocre/bad ones still use USB, good ones use Firewire.

And so does the iPod.

I thought that I'd never use 5-6 USB ports either. Now i'm glad I have them all. I plug in some sound pulsing lights, Dazzle, a jump drive, my Mp3 player cable, my camera cable, and my mouse. I know that your camera only has to be plugged in for like 15 seconds at a time, but it's easier to just leave the cord plugged in so that you don't have to reach around to the back of the case everytime you need to pull some pictures off of it.

Did you pop out keys on your keyboard and just randomly put them back on?
