Yep, Even though the T21 is slower, i'd still buy it. Very durable laptop.

Default usb to serial works ok

some chipsets work better than others. I've found for VEMS and 034, the adapters with the Prolific PL2303 chipset work best.

Default I wish Audi made laptops.

If Thinkpads had red LED backlit keys instead of the Thinklight, it would be perfect.

Oh I want leather wrist rests and "expensive" feeling buttons too.

Default cool, thx for the input Marc. My RossTech stuff is serial too, so it wouldn't be a total loss

to try & find a 9pin card. RossTech says their dongles aren't happy talking through a USD-Serial converter. A local shop may be buying my old Vag-COM wiring though, in which case I can put that $ towards a RossTEch KEY-USB, which then means I only need a serial port for the Stand-alone engine management...i dunno, I'll figure something out
