Hi
Again, I'd say it's the lowest common denominator. Synchronous comm using
RS-232 levels on a DB-25 came before asynchronous comm. It's long dead.
Being first isn't *always* best. Same could be said of

Commodore computers in the longago dimdark past serialized the GPIB.
They started out with the GPIB as the disk drive and printer interface
from the get-go. I used a Commodore as a cheap controller when Hp GPIB
controllers cost a small fortune.

the same suggestion seriously in the recent past.
Where is my box of 2102 DRAMs? I left it around here somewhere.

What aspects of USB would HP have used? Just the complexity of a USB
OHCI/UHCI would have been economically prohibitive compared to an
asynchronous serial UART. An OHCI/UHCI is more like an ethernet
controller and those took up the space of entire expansion boards
initially.
What they did come
You know there is one other aspect of this question from Corby. How do I
say this. Age. If you are using the old basics then things like the latest
basic by different names are quite convoluted and distracting. They are
designed for mobile phone apps. You know those crazy modern apps that sell.

Murray we offered up the same thing for pretty much the same reasons.
Good to know I am in fine company. Hmmm Ham + free??? Any link?

Corby,
Power Basic certainly does the job. However, there's a fairly big learning
curve. I use Just Basic, which is a FREE cut-down version of Liberty Basic.
While there are a few limitations, and some things you need to do aren't
entirely intuitive, it works very well and the serial comms supp
