  1. I think the latest machine with a built-in serial port was the T43. The dock for the T60, T61, etc did have one, but not the basic machine. I use an express card port.
  2. Hi, Currently in our organizations we are using IBM laptops, T43 and T60. Problem is that these laptops doesnt have any serial ports. Now some times we have to use.

The T43 has upgraded to the next-generation Centrino components. The notebook's Pentium M 750 (1.86 GHz), DDR2 533 memory, and PCI Express graphics performed admirably in our SYSmark 2004 tests. Internet Content Creation scores (165) and Office productivity scores (109) were slightly lower than those of the (169 and 113, respectively), but the HP has a faster processor (a 2.0-GHz Pentium M 760). The T43 we tested came with the extended battery (9 cell), which drove its BatteryMark score (4 hours, 49 minutes) well past the HP nc6230's 3:40. One of the T43's high points is IBM's acclaimed ThinkVantage suite, a set of management utilities that consistently ranks at the top.

IBM also employs a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) chip-a built-in chip on the motherboard that protects your passwords and authenticates the user at the hardware level. The fingerprint reader is tied to the TPM chip, providing a second layer of security. Both the TPM chip and fingerprint reader require additional software that is preloaded in the system, but not installed. (For an easy-to-follow diagram and explanation of TPM, click.) In addition, the ThinkVantage suite offers Rescue and Recovery, IBM's proprietary backup and recovery solution, which is significantly better than HP's Altiris brand. There's also a great wireless utility that is extremely competent for securing and managing all your 802.11 connections. The ThinkPad T43 is strong and sturdy. It uses a tough titanium composite to fortify the cover surrounding the screen and has steel hinges below the screen to prevent flexing.

And the T43 is terrific for travel. Weighing just 6.3 pounds with the 9-cell battery, it slides easily into any briefcase, with room to spare. The 14.1-inch SXGA+ (1,400-by-1,050) screen is great for working through the night.

We love the keyboard and pointing stick. Time and time again, we have praised IBM for these components. The T43 includes a replaceable optical drive and an Express Card 34/54 slot, but there is still a shortage of devices that can take advantage of these features. The system comes with only two USB ports, an S-Video port, and a VGA port. And, sadly, there's no memory card reader. The upgraded components, robust security suite, and top-of-the-line management tools make the IBM ThinkPad T43 our business notebook of choice, and the perfect business tool for any professional.
