slap on the side: n. (also called a sidecar, or abbreviated
`SOTS'.) A type of external expansion hardware marketed by computer
manufacturers (e.g., Commodore for the Amiga 500/1000 series and IBM
for the hideous failure called `PCjr'). Various SOTS boxes provided
necessities such as memory, hard drive controllers, and conventional
expansion slots.
