That's what I do too. The newer machines seem to mostly have USB hook-ups. I haven't had or seen the USB hook-up in use but since it is newer I'm assuming it's better. My design converter is a mini magic box and it won't work with my new computer (windows 7) so I use my old laptop with it. The mini magic box manufacturer told me that my new computer is 64 bit and the mini magic box is 32 bit (like windows XP). I'm not sure I understand all this but I'm glad I had an old computer around to use for my embroidery machine.
