iDEQ200N is very nice compact PC by BioStar. However, does not have COM port and parallel port. I found out pin-header as those resources in user manual. I tried out to equip connector for each. Also you can find out card reader and writer on front panel. Mitsumi is installed in my PC. This card R/Wer has extra USB connector. Extra connector pull out sleeping USB connector which is on Mother board.
Wireing and install connector for COM and parallel.
I'm using RSS reader as Sharp Reader and BBS reader client as HotZonu. Each software is used in my PC place. PC place means my room, office and parent's home. Offcourse each PC has them. However, read information is kept in each. We can not sync... My Idea solves this problem. I kept them in USB Flash memory.
I added key-chain (no pictture). I can bring any place as I go.
Anyway, we have to use external HDD with cube type PC. AC-power adapter(s) are needed. Very redundant those adaptor. We have just generated DC 5V/12V in PC !!!
