USB hub for macbook?

last time I looked at getting a hub was for a last revision G4 Powerbook and couldn't get one to work.
Same with an external enclousure for a HD.
Eventually got one that used a 2 usb to 1 mini cable and the enclosure and drive powered up fine and worked.Had since returned the usb hub and didn't think to try another.

Now once again I'm in the market for a USB Hub for a macbook (white one)

So suggestions/examples/pics/links of what you have that works.

Simple,cheap (ish),4 ports at the most I guess.

 

I tried the 4 port version of that with the Powerbook.I just couldnt remember the name but i recognised the design
