The serial port *is* hot-swappable. Some drivers don't recognize when an item has been added/removed because that's not part of the spec, but I've never had a problem with this. (This information is from a quiz Tidbits had a few years ago about what ports are hot-swappable - ah, here it is: <http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbart=05941>.)
