Ok, Peter. ONE LAST, and FINAL TIME:

When you can convice all peripheral manufacturors to use serial only,
and can get rid of all the parallel devices in the known universe then
we can talk about machines that only come with serial port(s).

Until such time as that is true, the only seinsible thing for a computer
manufacturor to do is to supply one of each.

I found it pretty amusing that when you had a badly aligned floppy
drive you wanted commodore to change the filesystem to accomidate
all your bad disks.

And now that you want one more serial port you want the world to abolish
parallel ports.

The world does not revolve around Peter da Silva - I checked with
copernicus.

P.S. Your application to read talk.bizarre was received and rejected.
You're too predictible. And no, knowing how to spell didn't help any.
