USB Specification 1.1

Question

I am planning to purchase a USB device for my 'Dimension XPS T500'. In documentation, the device required to be connected to 'USB Specification 1.1 Compatible' USB. I want to know USBs on my machine is whether USB Specification 1.1 or not. I used System Configuration card on this website, but unable to find the information about USB specification. I also find motherboard type, which is: 'Intel Corporation SE440BX-3 AA722396-111' I went to intel website, but unable to find the information. They had SE440-BX and SE440-BX-2, but no information about SE440-BX-3 was found. I currently use following USB devices for my machine: Epson Perfection 1200 Photo Scanner Wacom Intuos Special Edition 9x12 They are both working just fine. If you have any idea, please let me know. Thank you. Shin Hashitani bGE Design Senior Art Director webmaster@bgedesign.com

The USB Host Controller built into the Dimension XPS T series is USB 1.0 compliant. The USB 1.1 specification includes the unchanged USB 1.0 Host Controller specification.

Well,
if Host Controller is the same, I guess it should work okay, right?

If so,
why did they specify as USB 1.1 is something I don't understand.

Anyway,
I am getting a head of myself. Probably something I don't know. As long as the device works, I am okay with that.

Thank you, Cody!
