WTB: Cheap Local Serial Port Equipped Laptop

Looking for a cheap, old ahss, whooped laptop. Nothing special, but needs to be equipped with a serial port, additional USB is fine, btu I need one serial port. Nothing newer than 5 years will have one. Processor anything that will run windows 2k or better would work.

Holler at me, maybe you got some POS laying around, some dinosaur you have no use for.

You can buy relatively inexpensive USB-Serial converters.
I just had to get one for my ATP Ignition.

Re: WTB: Cheap Local Serial Port Equipped Laptop

Yeah, not all serial/USB adapters work with all hardware. I'd rather just have a relic that I know will work with no issues.
