Subject: [PLUG] USB cable longer than 15 feet?

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but...

Anyone ever see if USB cable longer than 15 feet, or is that the max 
allowed by the spec?  I may need to replace a 25' parallel printer cable 
with USB, and 15' < 25'.  I guess I can use a powered (or unpowered) hub 
to join 2 15' cables.  Anyone got anything better?

Later,
JP

"Microsoft Tax" = the additional hardware & yearly fees for the add-on
software required to protect Windows from its own poorly designed and
implemented self, while the overhead incidentally flattens Moore's Law.
