Hi guys. Pardon my total and complete ignorance when it comes to all things computers. Aside from logging on to the internet, my knowledge pertaining to anything else computer related is horribly lacking. :oops:

I was wanting to update the 1.00 OS in my MS to the new 1.0.1 upgrade. In order to do this I understand that you need a good USB cable. The MS manual states that a 2.0 USB/Type B cable is the one that I need. I believe I found one on Amazon and was wondering if it would do the job? Have a look and tell me what you think:

Your help is much appreciated. Thanks for your time. :)

Yup, that's the exact one you'll need. If you live close to any thrift stores, check there first. Most will have a bin in the electronics section filled with a ton of wires. I got a handful of them for a dollar each.

Thank you Re-member! I placed the order, but will definitely check the thrift shops out in my area for extra cables.
