1-2 The M004 Motherboard
The onboard Giga I/O controller provides standard PC I/O functions:
floppy drive interface, two First In First Out (FIFO) serial ports, an
Infrared Data Association (IrDA) device port, and a parallel port that
supports Standard Parallel Port (SPP), Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP),
and Extended Capabilities Port (ECP).
