What device make use of ports like parallel and serial?

Various devices used to make use of serial ports (Printers, modems, serial mice, joysticks, gps receivers, and much more). The parallel port was designed as a standard for printers, but eventually made use of peripherals such as (zip drives, scanners, hard disk, cd-rom drives and modems)... Now a days you don't see serial or parallel being used too often anymore, since most have made the shift to USB.

Here is some more in-depth information on wiki for the two standards.

Air Conditioner is positioned behind iMac and blowing directly on it's back- beneficial harmful or meaningless?

Moving air of any kind helps a computer cool more effectively. Having a air conditioner blow directly at the computer will make it operate at cooler temperatures. Cooler temperatures will extend the computers life. Other benefits are the A/C removes moisture from the air and has a filter that would help reduce dust.

Don't have the air so cold that condensation will form inside the computer. That would be bad.

How do you rename an external hard drive?

you can only rename partitions when unmounted. So what I would try is to unmount the drive, fire up GParted and rename the partition.

But you could also connect it to a windows box and do it from there. But then you would need a windows box, and not everyone has that readily available

How can you identify the BIOS chip?

When the computer boots, it usually allows the bios name and version to display (but this can be hidden in the setup for the computer). You can still get into the system info before windows starts by going into setup (could be hitting del key or F2 or F10 key or whatever the particular computer manufacturer has programmed it to be.. this is also usually displayed on the bootup screen). The bios info (make and version) is in the system information accessed thru menu selections in setup.

Which is faster an eSATA port or a FireWire 800 port?

Firewire 800 (IEEE 1394b) has a maximum speed of 800Mbps (Megabits per second). eSATA has a maximum speed of 3.0 Gbps (gigabit per second). So eSATA is faster.

In very few scenarios [like transfering a bunch of small files], FireWire will come close, but in most scenarios eSATA will spank it hard. eSATA runs at the same speed as an internal hard drive connection, because it's the exact same thing. It just doesn't have the little L notch. Also keep in mind, some USB and FireWire speed will be lost while being converted from SATA to a signal that they can work with. The signal has to be processed for FireWire and USB to be able to use it.

But FireWire 800 is faster than USB 2.0. And it's better for capturing video from cameras. USB 2.0 does a big burst then it slows down, while FireWire maintains a more constant throughput. I don't know of any video cameras that use eSATA. eSATA has been the best thing for external hard drives, until they came out with USB 3.0. It seems to be making eSATA obsolete. I still use eSATA because it's what I have, and it's about 3 times faster than USB 2.0. Also USB 3.0 is good for everything but, e SATA is still best for external hard drives, while FireWire is considered best for video.

If there are not enough power cords from a power supply what can you purchase that can add an additional power cord?

It depends on what cords your need. Certain power cords can be split with a female/ 2 male adapter that you could find at Tigerdirect.com or Newegg.com, wherever you shop. You can split molex and sata power cords for sure, i know that, but for anything else, just give a look for PSU splitters in one of those shops.
