USB 2.0 On Gateways

When did 2.0 usb ports begin on Gateways? I have a 500S with Pentuim 4 and
Win XP that was delivered in 2002 and it says it came with 6 version 1.1.
How can you tell what version the ports are?

Thanks

That year was the one when USB 2.0 began to appear as standard.

It likely has what it says - six USB 1.1 ports. Intel did put some USB 2
support on the market, but general availability began with the i865/i875
chipset - only a few of the later 850 and 845 boards have USB 2 onboard.

I also forgot to ask my memory question! This pc has 1 stick of 256MB DDR
ram and I want to go to 512. Can I just pair this one up or should I go
with just one stick of 512??

Thanks
