They do work but can be very hit and miss... We use them at work to log into our Telco kit in the street cabs...

I had the same problem trying to find one for my SCT package. Found one in the end. I can have a word with my mate for ya, he seems to be able to lay his hands on this kind of stuff

pretty sure my laptop has a serial port, and is running XP, but its a bit manky, and the mouse pad doesn't work, so you need to use a USB mouse..

might be interested in selling....
