True or false: Crossover cable is more versatile for direct data transfers and is not any slower than using auto-sensing. AFAICT, there is nothing wrong with crossover cable. If there was, methinks the parent commenter wouldn't be mentioning it on HN. I do not see grey because I use a text-only browser. It's all the same color (except italics), just how I like it. :)
