ABSTRACT:
A computer system includes a computer body and a main board installed in the computer body, the main board having a digital controller configured to support an audio standard interface. The computer system further includes a card unit separated from the computer body, the card unit including a card for conducting at least one of audio and communication functions supporting the audio standard interface, a connection jack electrically connected to the card and adapted to transmit a signal from the card to the digital controller, and a connection port provided on the main board, the connection port being connectable to the connection jack so as to transmit the signal from the connection jack to the digital controller. By this configuration, the computer system can have and retain compatibility with different cards supporting the audio standard interface when one of those cards mounted on the main board is replaced by another one of the cards without any replacement of the main board.
