I haven't had chance to test this yet, but I really like the idea - by
an amasing co-incidence, I was actually thinking about the possibility
of doing a parallel port connected front panel earlier today!

Does anybody have any suggestions for recommended standard uses for
parallel port connected LEDs?

Disk spinning up/disk ready
Root login active

Any other suggestions?

John.
