Port) support and a 3-D audio function.
Aside from the standard I/O (input/output) interfaces such as one serial port, one
parallel port, and PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, the system also offers two USB
(Universal Serial Bus) ports, one VGA (Video Graphics Accelerator) port, one
Feature connector, one mono Microphone-in port, one stereo Line-in port, one
Line-out port, and one Game/MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) port.
