Get a pcmcia com port adapter or a USB-com port dongle. Simple.

You can buy USB-serial adapters on ebay for $10
Printer ports have also disappeared from laptops and are harder to find on new desktop mainboards... |

It was a lot of fun back in the day fucking with the cards. I had a subscription anyways, but I would swap the cards out if there was stuff on ppv I wanted to watch lol. Got a good 1.5 years or so for free muah.
