#135275 - and the things go marching on
Responding to: ???'s previous message
It is a fact that the current technology is USB and nothing else. For that reason you are kind of screwed if you buy a laptop since most of the 'in line' converters only work for the 'normal' purpose (e.g. USB to serial will drive a modem, but not a programmer ...)

I know of only two ways to get around this
a) buy USB gear
b) use cards that provide the plug you need.
