- The external parallel port is mounted as female sub-d 25 connector at
- the rear bracket, whereas the internal is a 26 pin header.
- There are industry standard connector/bracket/cable combinations which
- let you route the internbal port outside. This doesn't come with the card
- as only very few pepole actually need it. The whole thing is/was necessary
- because the second parallel port simply couldn't fit onto the bracket.
