Thanks to all for the serial port references.

My USB problem is worse than just a COM port, though.  Somehow (you tell me 
what's easiest), I have to get video in from a camera (full broadcast 
bandwidth).  My inclination was to use a USB video grabber.  If I do that, 
then I have to know how to deal with USB input.  What's the best way to 
proceed?  (I will actually have more than one camera feeding the computer).
