Ahhhh - the old blip-blip-blip ... why didn't you say so?

I used to hear that on my old dell server system - an immensely powerful
computer (dual 3.6 MHz Xeon) with a really crappy USB system ... in fact I
think one of the ports was USB1 

In some old description of app rpt there is talk about a jitter buffer for
the USB devices that you could adjust.  I think that may have been replaced
with some sort of elastic buffer that you cannot adjust (Jim will know).

You can imagine that, in some low end systems (or problematical USB ports),
the output does not keep up with the input or vice versa and eventually a
buffer overflows (or runs dry). At that point the program has to throw away
some data or stop and let the buffer fill again .... of course, if people
keep letting the carrier drop from time to time you may never run into
this....
