Bluetooth services are those things that this computer can do for remote

Some services are hardware dependant. For example; this computer cannot
provide the fax service unless it has a physical fax modem.

they were actual physical ports.
Each Bluetooth service that this computer is capable of providing can be
started automatically when Bluetooth starts. Each service can be setup to
