Ah, you mean the printer port LPTn right? Please tell me you're only going to use it for it's originally intended purpose? :D

Okay, okay, hint taken! ;)

By far the quickest and easiest way for me to get an LPT (or perhaps other standard expansion possibilities, like game ports etc.) would be to implement it as a daughter-board. Would this suffice?

Intended purpose? Of course not :-) A daughter board would be fine as long as it is not bulky. The parallel port should be bog standard SPP. JMHO of course. I can see uses for Start Commander, 64HDD and others.
