One of these may be able to help you. Also, I just baught a del Enspiron 600M. This has a serial port but look on the linux laptops site for any notes specific to your distrobution with this moddle. The modem probably isn't supported and try to get it with a wireless that is supported if you need wireless. It was not cheap though. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Moore" To: Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 4:57 AM Subject: Laptops with serial ports > Morning guys, > I'm in the market for a new laptop and I know this will be hard to find, but are there any laptops out there you guys have experience with or know of that come with a serial port? > I'd rather not have to use software speech on a lptop unless I have too. > Also this makes it a bit hard to do n install with out speech as well if I'm not able to get a serial port. > Thanks for any help you may be able to offer. > > Tom > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup@braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
