If you're gonna buy a brand new computer, what the heck do you need legacy ports for?
Because they are simple, effective and much less expensive to interface.
I won't be ready to drop so-called 'legacy' ports until USB is built onto every microcontroller just like UARTs are now. Even then, I suspect I'll prefer RS-232/48X.
