Instead of buying a cheep USB hub get a USB card for your computer.  It adds 4 more ports via a PCI card.  They would also be fully powered like any other USB port on your computer.  I use one in my cab and have no problems.  I had issues with the cheep USB hubs.

This is definitely the type of question which I could have answered very quickly by email.

Correct advice though here, ie just plug it into a USB port. If you REALLY dont want to do this I can supply details of how to by-pass the USB interface but I would advise against this.
