PS: For you lucky teams with new laptops, I think you can get a PCMCIA to serial or a USB to serial adapter.
Actually, the laptop I use is my own personal machine. I have a nice, new laptop that I bought, and it doesn't have serial. Right now, we're stuck with an old NEC Pentium 90 that has no CD or battery. It's also Win95, but with an 800x600 screen.
