<p>A computer interface apparatus is selectably connectable to a PC-Card interface or a parallel port interface of a computer system. In the preferred embodiment, selection is achieved simply by the user choosing the correct cable for connecting to the computer. When the correct cable is connected to the apparatus, the cable causes the apparatus to configure itself to operate with either the parallel or PC-Card port as appropriate. In this preferred embodiment, the apparatus provides a connection to an ATAPI mass storage device although any device for the mass storage of data provided with any other interface may be accommodated.</p> |
