ATI TV Wonder USB 2.0 Reviewed

An anonymous reader writes "ViperLair reviews the ATI TV Wonder USB 2.0, a sort of low-rent option for those you want to add a TV tuner or video-in to their machines, but would prefer an outboard piece of equipment instead of cracking open their case and dropping in a daughter board."

Re:Why the hell is it a "daughter board"?

[donscarletti]

I understand the continuation of the "motherboard" concept here, but daughter board makes absolutely no sense in my mind. Sure, the child analogy fits, but the "daughter" board has a PCI connector that is INSERTED into the motherboard. In every other application I have EVER seen this is referred to as a "male" connector (a female being a receiver connector into which the male is inserted).

It should be called an oedipus board. Because it is a child that inserts its male connector into its motherboard.

That was possibly the worst thing I have ever posted.
