at work for our serial port needs. mostly because the ports enumerate in
the same order every time, which is a huge bonus. they have smaller,
cheaper versions as well as a more expensive version that tunnels serial
over ethernet. Having hardware serial ports be the limiting factor when
choosing a PC seems overly limiting to me.
