Seems like these are all but extinct, but does anyone know of a
'new' notebook that has a serial port built onto it? I've found some that
have port replicators, but that can be a pain when you need to serial
into a router or some other device. What do you guys use?
Socketcomm has a PCMCIA serial port card.

Not cheap.  If you hear of something else, Please let me know.
