It has a serial connector, so I can get LIRC running again.
I start studying my self programmed LIRC powered remote control system back to use.
[LIRC is the tool for re-use my old self-programmed TV remote controls
Always handy, a free tool to be able to get more remote controls in the house,
keep my old self programmed remote controls in use again -
the old ones are more reliable - and it is good to protect the environment]
