not that I would recommend. There was a company that had drivers if you bought their usb card, but other than that, nope

USB can theoretically be made to work on NT4, but it's next to (and probably IS) impossible to actually make a USB device work in NT4.

Not really. Like BHOF said, some USB manufacturers had created USB drivers, but they did not work. Microsoft will never supply USB drivers or support for USB for Windows NT 4, only 2000 and above.

Not really sure if it is SP6 or SP6a that supports USB but my friend has a USB scanner hooked up to his NT box and it works just fine. I believe it is an Epson. However, that is an exception to the rule. If you want good USB support you go for 98/ME or 2000. ;)
