no serial port on your computer??
Alright.. so you have a notebook with no Serial ports.. this is being more common on the newer notebooks so what do you do to plug your microtech into it?

That's the auction i won.. it's a USB to serial connector and atleast on my lap top it works like a charm. I instaled the drivers for it, went out to my car and instantly was able to pull up my microtech (took my first data logs *giddy* ).
It was 20 bucks or so shipped. well worth it since I was thinking about buying a computer just for this reason but the fact is I won't use a notebook in my car often.. the hand controller does a great job for me.
just a FYI for those worried about it
hope it helps.
