Need more USB connections

My motherboard, FIC AD-10, comes with two standard USB. This was fine, but I have purchased a New Epson 1290 Printer, a Nikon Coolscan IV (35mm slide scanner), and Logitech optical mouse, all of which are USB.

1.Would a basic USB hub be the best solution? Is there any limitations to using a hub?

2. Is it worth considering adding the two optional USB connectors to this ATX motherboard? If so, where can I buy it?

Thanks. I feel a little silly asking these questions but little need for USB in the past

A USB adatpter to the motherboard would be the cheapest way to go, giving you 2 more USB ports.
A hub is Ideal for alot of connections that you can place anyware within reach.
Eeither way is fine.

Or here
You could buy a Hub at any Computer store, Best Buy, Comp USA, Office Max etc.
