You can connect things like USB-powered cooling fans and cooling pads.

Wow,I didn't know anything like that existed. So, I could use it to cool off the equipment in my rack. Great. So, where would I find these? Comp USA? Thanks

I purchased a $5 goose-neck "USB Laptop Light" with an on/off switch and plugged it in back there. It eliminates the need for a flashlight and makes it much easier to see when/if I have to rewire any of my AV components.

www.cyberguys.com has a wide selection of USB-powered gadgets. I've seen mug heaters and can chillers (neither very effective, I imagine), lighted aquariums, toothbrushes, ionizers and some things (at other sites) not suitable for mention on a family forum.

Small cameras can be attached and accessed via the Window button on the remote.

Ah, yes. A developer in the OpenVMS group at HP wrote a VMS device driver for that one, due to popular demand.
