Intro

This project started as a continuation of my previous CF adapter for Toshiba portables project. In using those I started to realize that there where more features that I wanted on my Toshiba's, like sound and analog joystick controls. Unfortunately most of the Toshiba models only have one expansion port (except 3200 & 5200 line). So it quickly became clear I had to integrate more features on the same boards.
