A while back, while moving some cables, I managed to connect a 25 pin
serial cable to my 25 pin parallel printer port. Some interesting things
happened, the weirdest was that my computer reported a wild CPU
temperature increase. I think on my MB, the chip that handles the
parallel port also performs CPU temperature monitoring and I forced the
chip VCC higher than normal having RS232 voltage levels presented on its
I/O pins.
