Port access for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP

Here's a nice little DLL to access ports diectly in windows.
Can be used if you have a pc in your robot for control applications.

Found a new I/O card design.
This one is PCI with lots of ports.

No worries,
I'm looking at making the control board for my robot. It will be using I2C and SPI for the control protocols throughout the robot.
So the board will have to have them as ports. And it looks like I will be using the Picaxe as the control modules throughout the unit.
They are cheap and looks like have the servo and port iterface options I want.
