Me too.  Does this mean we have a way of constructing an expansion card/podule
that can use the printer port on an A4?  I'm more interested in video
digitising, but if a sound digitiser can use the printer port then perhaps a
video digitiser could, or is there a bandwidth problem?  As I've said in a
separate article, I need a portable video digitising system for a project I'm
helping with.

John.
