Some days ago I exchanged my MOS9835 based I/O card with newer version based on MOS9845. Old one had one parallel port (which I never used) and two serial ports. New one do not have parallel port but has 6 serial ports instead. Why so much? The answer is simple — more devices on desk require [...] On my desk I have lot of things which require power. USB hubs, developer boards, customer devices etc. So far I counted 3×12V (ngw100, at91sam9263ek, edb9301) and 4×5V (usb hubs, beagleboard, bug). I do not count under desk devices because there is more space so extra cables from power supplies are not a problem (voltage [...] My desktop has few RS232 ports: one FTDI RS232-USB converter one connected to mainboard two on additional PCI card (which also gives me parallel port) When I got BeagleBoard I had to remove the one connected to mainboard — connected that cable to BB itself.

Device use Vortex86SX SoC which is based on 486SX [...] Some time ago I got AT91SAM9263-EK board which was given by Atmel company. It is not first developer board which I use but first which I own ;) Currently I run 2.6.28 kernel on it and have a problem with audio as it works only via OSS emulation and OOPS when ALSA is used directly. I [...] Nearly two years ago I wrote about end of Zaurus production. This news ended on many websites around the globe (mostly without quoting source).
