I use a USB external modem. When plugged in, the computer automatically

Then again, I've never heard of a computer without a serial port. That is a bit
strange.

They're fairly common now. My wife's work laptop has no serial port,
just USB, Ethernet, monitor output, and some weird DIN-like thing
that *isn't* a mouse or KB port.
