I know you're not supposed to plug loads of bus powered usb devices into a hub, but is something bad going to happen if I do? I want to have a Bluetooth dongle and a midi controller and a mouse at once, will it break anything? Does a midi controller use a lot of power? |

As far as I know, the worst that can happen is that some device may stop. Not dangerous IMO. |

You're mean to be able to daisy chain 127 devices. It's just power that stops that. |

get a powered hub, it will eliminate the problems of devices getting too little juice from your computer |

Yeah I know, but I have a bedroom about 2m square with 14 power plugs already in use so there is little space for my legs under this desk as it is. I've never suffered a juice shortage but I was lead to believe I could short something in my laptop if I hammered it with peripherals |

nah, the only thing likely to happen is that your mac will say that it hasn't got enough juice to support the connected devices |

So I pour juice on it? |
