Title: serial ports
Post by: _AH_z5o on August 05, 2010, 07:38:27 PM
Ok Im clueless, Im needing, something PCI that has or is a RS232 serial port. I remember older PC's having them, but, my Dell  (roll) only has USB.
So, how can I get my hands on one to install on my system, I cant really spend much on the dern thing seeing Im only going tobe using it once to load some maps to my Garmin.
Any ideals?

easy to find less than 8 bucks online. they have even cheaper ones that are just adapters instead of cables
