Awesome!!! The 520, 630 and 830 all have serial ports. I'm a happier camper today. :)

I've been asked to look for notebooks for my office that have built-in serial ports.

Some of Dell's Latitude line still have them. I've got a D820 here with one, I believe the D830 (current model) still has one. According to emperorlinux.com the D520 and D630 have them also.
My D620 has one too
