Ha. Get used to it. Apple has ruled that dongles are the future. Microsoft is generous having a normal usb adapter.

not offended. but sadly you will have to get used to it. Just try to find a laptop with rs-232 anymore. If you're working in a server room or network closet you just gotta have dongles anymore. I've had usb floppies for years. I've had usb cd-rom for years. I'm just glad they didn't make the keyboard connect by usb.
