It wasn't the RS-232 that surprised me, it was the combination of RS-232
and PCI-E, when I expected that modern RS-232 interfaces to just use a USB
converter. It is kind of like finding someone putting a Pratt and Whitney
turbo fan on a Sopwith Camel.

In the medical and industrial fields RS-232 and RS-485 are
still alive and kicking.
I have numerous machines that I service which still have
RS-232 ports on them. I see RS-232 and RS-485 on
industrial equipment. They were good solid standards and
I guess if it ain't broke don't break it.

I love RS232 and UARTs generally, I use them all the time and for me they
will never go out of style, but I was wondering today about a specific
marriage of the ancient and the modern, and it was hard to believe, what
with USB being a pretty pervasive thing, they might exist, AND YET:
