running it with no problems from a late 2012 macbook pro retina (which is to be expected, i guess, since the two usb ports on my laptop are both usb 3.0).
i have to say, though, that i'm noticing a negative change in sound sig switching from a generic mini-usb cord i had lying around (bought it a few months ago for like $5 at best buy as a replacement phone charging cord) to the included mini-usb cord - and i've always been a non-believer when it comes to cables and cords. i really don't like the included mini-usb cord because, for some reason, i'm perceiving that it adds a little hardness and sibilance to the sound - just enough to grate on me. i'm rather sensitive to sibilance, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. regardless, the included mini-usb cord has now become my charging cord and my old charging cord has become my dedicated dacport slim cord.
