Can you use bit-banged I2C on these boards?

"IBM uses what I like to call the 'hole-in-the-ground technique' to
destroy the competition..... IBM digs a big HOLE in the ground and
covers it with leaves. It then puts a big POT OF GOLD nearby. Then it
gives the call, 'Hey, look at all this gold, get over here fast.' As
soon as the competitor approaches the pot, he falls into the pit"
