What is the difference between a VGA and AGP graphics card and slot compatibility?
VGA is ("Video Graphics Array/adapter") the term for a video card or other video adapter (such as an integrated one). AGP is a standard for video card expansion slots. Basically these are slots (designed for graphics adapters) that operate at a much higher throughput than PCI slots (normal, shoter, usually white expansion slots for other expansion cards). These come in a few versions: 2X, 4X, and 8X are the big ones right now. If you are interested in upgrading your video card (or lack thereof) you need to know what version your motherboard supports (an old one might support 2X /4X) and then you can decide what version of AGP to look for in a video card. also note that there is a new standard for video cards called PCI-express (PCI-x16). Currently, most of the newest video cards and motherboards are designed on this. later

Likewise, many business and desktop replacement Laptop computers have/had expansion card slots (PCMCIA or PC Card). As for a second board; All computers have built in communication channels on the main board (USB ports) that do not require a second board. Expansion card options are extensive and depend on the application for which they are designed. See Wikipedia link below for more. Most computers use USB ports and some use Firewire ports to communicate with other devices via cables. (Printers, External Storage Devices, etc... Which have their own IO interface boards.) Other popular USB Add-on devices include wireless adapters that add wireless network (WiFi) and Bluetooth capabilites to machines that did not come with wireless communication features.
