When looking at the views on the T42p information page
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55339 it seems that there is a firewire port on it.
Especially this view: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55316
So: Which of the T42p models do have FireWire/IEEE 1394?
To find the link, look for these words on the first page:
- Views and locations
- System left side http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55316
- System right side http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55317
- System front http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55315
- System back http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55319
- System bottom http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55318
Personally, I haven't used a parallel port since ages, but use serial ports every now and then, especially when configuring compact devices and networking gear.
