I've found "off lease" and refurbished older laptops quite good for
radio. A couple sellers on Amazon have worked for me. Including one with
a real serial port. But then I upgraded my K3 with the K3S components so
now use a USB port.

Another possibility is an "off lease" older PC from the likes of
TigerDirect. There will be other sources, this is the place I recently
purchased a pair. One is a Dell, other is a HP; both have "real" hardware
serial ports. It is also possible to buy these with Windows 7 or even XP.
Both of my systems have a total of 4 expansion slots - 2 PCI express x 1, 1
PCI express x 16 and 1 PCI. All are low profile hardware configuration.
