Computer Cable and Adapter Guide?

Getting a computer cable and adapter should involve checking the model and serial number of your computer and then asking the clerk at the store what will fit with your computer. Selecting an adapter specifically involves choosing one for the exact model number you have. The whole point of adapters is that there is compatability between devices so you need to know your device. Going to a store and coming home with an adapter that only works with the model number from the year before can be infuriating. It's best to do your research before you go to the store.


How many serial ports in a PC?

some have none, especially newer smaller laptops that only have a few usb ports. althought a serial cable to usb connector usually works, the connection is laggier. most computers have one, maybe two. unless you are running multiple devices, one is all you need. this is in reference to a nine pin serial cable. most have a 20pin serial port for visual in/out, but this is not related to a com port. serial ports are identified as COM, usually COM1 or COM3 but each port can only be used by one thing at a time.i know very little about computer anatomy, so while i know this is partially right, someone should add correct me if i am wrong
