From the project
Variant of the 3-in-1 Expansion board with Dual Serial and a second Parallel port.
This is a single expansion board designed for the Tandy 1000 EX and HX computers, to include the following upgrades:
640KB Base System Memory and 96KB Upper Memory 2x 16550-based DE9 Serial RS232 Ports and 1x Parallel Port * XT-IDE based CompactFlash "Hard Drive"
This board is for the Tandy 1000EX and 1000HX computers only. It will not work in any other computer model as it is. You must remove any expansion cards already in the computer, this is designed to be a single-board upgrade and has no provisions to allow for any other expansion cards.
