Title: Re: do macs still have serial ports?
The vast majority of people who need to interface with serial devices these days use a serial-to-USB converter.  PC or Mac.  I recently purchased a couple of devices for a very special application, and the only use serial interfaces, and the manufacturer now includes the serial-USB devices by default.

Subject: do macs still have serial ports?


The application I am porting to MacOS can monitor a Universal Power Supply (UPS) product.  The UPS connects to a Linux computer via serial connection or a Windows computer using either USB or Serial.  My question is, on MacOS should I build the application with serial support for UPS devices?  My iMac doesn't seem to have a DC9 serial port on it, and I wonder if serial support is just far too outdated in Mac world to bother with it?
