usb hubs

[ljonesj]

i need a good usb hub that can be powered off the other usb port on my 13in macbook pro cause i have a portable usb hd that when one usb port wont power it can get power off the other and operate but that claims the other port
i need something i can hook up to both ports and gives me 4 ports then
