Subject: RE: Laptop with Serial Port?

 

I have found not all Serial <--> USB adapters are created equal. My car's
ECU (engine computer) is programmable but only via serial port, and my
laptop only has USB ports and I had to be particular about which adapter I
used else I'd get "no comm".

 

This is the one I picked up:

Subject: Laptop with Serial Port?

 

Anyone have a recommendation for a 12-14" laptop with a serial port? We have
some field staff who require serial connections for monitoring equipment,
and the USB/serial adapters don't always work.
