My scanning of the advertisments is inconclusive- they generally say "industry standard serial and parallel ports". I take this to mean "1 serial and 1 parallel port", since the laptops generally state "2 serial ports" when that is true. Ideally it would also have 386SX, enough RAM for Windows 3.0 (just in case I end up using it), an AT slot, a large VGA display, 40Mb disk, 3.5" disk (and a decent price, of course). but I really require 2 serial ports, and the rest is optional. I prefer the better-known name brands with a reputation for quality, not just cut-rate pricing. Who knows what's out there? Any suggestions or recommendations?
