The problem are laptops. Many technicians on, er, hardware rooms, need to services things there that have a serial port for accessing. And, hey, their laptops don't have it now. Of course, the solution is to use an USB-rs232 adapter, but these things do not handle all the cables.

If you need them, you can get PC Card/Express Card serial adapter, they are true hardware serial ports. They are more expensive though (and not all notebooks have slots).
