With a little bit of case modification to run these ports to the outside of the A1200's wedge casing this would make a great way to add a cheap external PC DVD+RW, USB hard drive, pen drives and an Ethernet port without putting the mobo into a tower.

Pretty hard to figure out what this news story is about. But after you click the link it becomes clear. Could someone please modify this news story so it indicates it is back in stock again at Vesalia??
