The invention claimed is: 1. A computer housing for free-standing use, comprising a computer with slots for the insertion of extension cards, wherein the computer comprises a card carrier configured to carry extension cards of the computer, which card carrier comprises: a carrier connector whereby
The invention claimed is: 1. A computer housing for free-standing use, comprising a computer with slots for the insertion of extension cards, wherein the computer comprises a card carrier configured to carry extension cards of the computer, which card carrier comprises: a carrier connector whereby the card carrier is connectable by inserting the card carrier in the computer housing, via the carrier connector, with a communication connector of the computer, at least one adapter connector into which an extension card is pluggable, and wherein the card carrier comprises a communication connection between the carrier connector and the at least one adapter connector. 2. The computer housing according to claim 1, wherein the card carrier comprises a substantially planar carrier plate defining a plane of the carrier plate, the direction of movement when plugging in and unplugging the carrier connector is parallel to the plane of the carrier plate, and inserted extension cards are arranged in parallel to the plane of the carrier plate. 3. The computer housing of claim 1, wherein the card carrier is guided by guiding elements in the computer housing and can be pushed into the housing and pulled out of the housing by a linear movement. 4. The computer housing of claim 1, wherein the carrier plate of the card carrier is arranged parallel to the motherboard of the computer and can be pushed in and pulled out in a direction parallel to the motherboard. 5. The computer housing of claim 4, wherein the computer is arranged for passive cooling when in operation, and is configured to be, when in operation, arranged in an upright position, and in this position both the carrier plate and the motherboard are arranged vertically. 6. The computer housing of claim 1, wherein the carrier connector, for being inserted, comprises leading guiding elements for guiding the plugs, before the plug, and when the card carrier is inserted, moves into the communication connector of the computer. 7. The computer housing of claim 1, wherein the carrier connector comprises supply contacts for an electrical supply to the card carrier, which, when pulling out the card carrier, are interrupted after the remaining contacts of the carrier connector. 8. The computer housing of claim 1, wherein the carrier connector comprises signal contacts for a signaling connection of the card carrier, wherein these signal contacts, when pulling out the card carrier, are interrupted before the remaining contacts of the carrier connector. 9. The computer housing of claim 1, wherein the carrier connector is a PCI-Express interface and at least one adapter connector is a PCI-Express interface. 10. The computer housing of claim 1, wherein the carrier connector is a PCI-Express interface and at least one adapter connector is a PCI interface and the card carrier comprises a converter between the PCI-Express-Bus of the carrier connector and the PCI interface of the adapter connector. 11. A card carrier for insertion in a computer housing of a computer, the card carrier being configured to carry extension cards of the computer, and the card carrier comprising: a carrier connector whereby the card carrier is connectable, by inserting the card carrier in the computer housing, via the carrier connector, with a communication connector of the computer, at least one adapter connector into which an extension card is pluggable, and wherein the card carrier comprises a communication connection between the carrier connector and the at least one adapter connector according to claim 1. 12. The card carrier of claim 11, wherein the carrier connector is a PCI-Express interface and at least one adapter connector is a PCI interface and the card carrier comprises a converter between the PCI-Express-Bus of the carrier connector and the PCI interface of the adapter connector. 13. The card carrier of claim 11, further comprising communication connectors for communicating with further devices, wherein these further devices are attached to the card carrier, the card carrier further comprising a device detector for determining information about these further devices via the communication connectors and for transmitting this information via the carrier connector. 14. The card carrier of claim 13, wherein the information detected and transmitted by the device detector comprises information identifying the type of the further devices. 15. The card carrier of claim 11, wherein the carrier connector comprises signal contacts for a signaling connection to the card carrier, wherein these signal contacts, when pulling out the card carrier, are interrupted before the remaining contacts of the carrier connector. 16. The card carrier of claim 12, further comprising communication connectors for communicating with further devices, wherein these further devices are attached to the card carrier, the card carrier further comprising a device detector for determining information about these further devices via the communication connectors and for transmitting this information via the carrier connector.
