you got.I would prefer a local area swap that way we won't have to see who

Why not just get an older laptop running Windows 98 or Me for your ham
programs. That's what I did. Got an old Sony laptop that works
great. I only use it in the Jeep with GPS programs or programming the
Kenwood D700A. If I am at home I just use the home computer. My
regular laptop doesn't have a serial port either, and I gave up trying
to use a USB to Serial adapter.
