   It’s a LIE. It’s an out and out LIE. Not only isn’t that Ajay Bhatt, Ajay Bhatt’s profile at Intel doesn’t even claim he “co-invented” the USB. Three companies came out with USB drives at the same time, none of them were Intel, and the first flash drive was put out there by Dov Moran. Netak and Trek2000 dispute this and the three companies put their competing flash drives out long before Ajay Bhatt ever got into flash drives.

   Epic fail. Epic fail to all the pseudonerd wannabes who fell for it.

   In response to Disapprove, He was the co-inventer of the universal serial bus, and if you look it up, his name is on many of the patents associated with the design. fyi

   @Disapprove: You’re a Moron. In your head the USB is the same as a Flash drive. Moronic. A flash drive is one of the hundreds of different devices that are built to use USB to connect and trasfer data to/from a computer and get power from it too.

   The USB is the backbone which the flash drive uses to connect to the computer.

   The design and standards developed for the USB have led to all the flash drives of the world being possible.

   When you connect your phone/Camera/keyboard (virtually any device) to the computer, it uses USB.

   The USB which makes it all possible was designed by this guy. SHOW SOME RESPECT AND GET SOME BASIC KNOWLEDGE.

   Wow, Disapprove.

   Way to think two completely different concepts are exactly the same thing, as well as failing to do any sort of research on the person in question.

   Ajay Bhatt DID co-invent the USB. The only thing you have right is that the person in the commercial is a paid actor.

   Other than that, you failed miserably.

   Miserably.
