Parallel port parallel-only printers work with USB-only systems. There are PCI (and PCI-express) cards that provide parallel ports. There are also some print servers that provide interface to parallel port through network. USB-to-EPP chips can also allow other non-printer devices to continue to work on modern computers without a parallel port. For electronics hobbyists the parallel port is still often the easiest way to connect to an external circuit board. It is faster than the other common legacy port (serial port), requires no serial-to-parallel converter, and requires far less interface logic and software than a USB target interface. However, Microsoft operating systems
Parallel universes in fiction loses World War I and World War II, and they are controlled by a senator, and technology is at an all-time low. One of the earliest television plots to feature parallel time was a 1970 storyline on soap opera "Dark Shadows".
