You CAN buy laptops/notebook with serial ports. I have bought at least 4 of them in the last year. I just tooked delivery on a HP NW8000 last week with one serial point. Dell also offers notebooks with serial.

Besides, dont rule out a 4 port serial- pcmcia card.

One assumes you'll never buy a laptop.
They've not had serial ports for several years and USB is usually the only expansion route.
