Looks can be deceiving. That might be an HP-HIL connector -- does it
have a picture of the corresponding plug with one or two dots on the
cable, or maybe just the one or two dots? If so, it's HIL, and is
there so you can hook up a Vectra HIL keyboard (as shipped with the
real original Vectras that don't have alphabet soup after the word
"Vectra") or an HIL mouse or an HIL monitor w/touchscreen.
That all sounds plausible, but I do not think that HP Vectras ever used
the HIL standard. When I get back to Grenoble (where the Vectras were
designed) next week I will root around and see what I can dig up on this
machine.
