There is a small group of people still using serials ports.
Eprom Programmers "a few of those still in use"
Guys tunning cars " most have usb to serial cables now"
I am sure theres a few more uses but you can't even buy a Laptop
anymore with a serial port.
As much as I miss my serial port I think its time to call it
deprecated.
