IMHO, if there is no need in very low level bit-bang or legacy tty/serial 
stuff, just reading and writing bytes (e.g. modern USB-serial devices), 
then accessing serial port on both GNU/Linux and MS Windows is normal file 
openning process. (I'm not sure about default max baudrate, though).

But, nodejs has some problems with this on MS Windows:

And to debug this, there must be full toolchain, lib compile setup on my 
own laptop, not just python && MS VS as for `node-serial` :)
