There generally r 2 com ports, com1 and com2. They are RS232 ports which r serial ports.one way to communicate between 2 PCs is to use a software called hyperterminal..its there in evry computer.( accessories-> communication tools). if not u can also install it. u can find more information on it online..in case..1> u can either use an RS232 to IR converter device connected to the respective ports of both the comps to communicate.u'l be usin IR communication in dis case.2> u can connect a cable between these two ports of both the comps( female-female...as RS232 is a male port).but ure comps wud need to b in close proximity for a physical connection like dis.
u can get back to me for any further clarification on the same.

Your computer might not necessarily have a com port at all. A com port is just an older style serial port. USB ports have replaced com ports for the most part.

If there is a 25-pin female D-socket, that would be a parallel port.
