- When installing 3.1 on my A2000, I noticed a small header on the back of the
- motherboard, just forward of the serial port. Needless to say, this header's
- funtion intrigued me, so I checked out the schematics (page F-5 A2000 manual,
- Dave Haynie 'never could adjust to the load, although he tried so hard')
- and this header turned out to be an internal serial port. Have there been any
- devices designed for use with this internal serial port? (Just out of curiosity)
-
- Schematics rule! All computers should come with those.
-
- Also: For a bit of computer humor, look up 'Infinite Loop' in the glossary of the
- Workbench 3.1 manual.
