Serial

My first printer had a parallel Centronics Interface, but in 1991 I wrote a C library to control devices via a RS232 serial connection. It is still used today, for RS422 controlled devices, and will stay there for a long time, certainly 10 years or more and far behind me retiring, despite many attempts to get rid of serial devices (they all failed).

devices are here to stay... USB is a sign. Different media, same concept.

Don't you ever do that to me again: Else; I'll report you.
You almost made me gag. That is disgusting!
