There are a number of modules that plug into the PC Convertible. It's
analogous to the PCjr "sidecars". I know that the following units
exist: 1) a serial/parallel module; 2) a composite video output module
for the PC Convertible Monitor; 3) a printer module; and 4) the battery
module.

Subject: IBM Convertible Parts Needed and other Nifties
Received some fun free things today. I got an IBM Convertible that
works
but appears to have no ports for things like printers, serial, etc.
What
info can anyone give me about this machine and does anyone have the
expansion chassis that apparently plugs on the back?
I also received two Commodore SFD-1001 drives (the IEEE-488 things
that
look like a 1541). Anyone have an IEEE adapter for a C64, etc?
Thanks...
