Some thoughts on what should be removed from a modern day PC motherboard:
1. Parallel printer port - printers are now driven by USB.
2. RS232 com port - we are in a broadband era, not more dial-up modem in use.
3. Game port - I have never used it before.
4. Floppy disk controller - 1.44 MB floppy disk can't even store one single file.
After removing all these redundant interfaces and circuitries, can we expect the prices of motherboards to drop. Not quite.
