If most new motherboards comming out now don't have serial ports on them then how are the mfg's debugging the boards? JTAG? If so then I think we better start learning how to do JTAG. Of course the mfgs may drop the jtag interface on a production run.
Its a tough issue. But one we are going to have to solve.
The chipset dev boards come with serial ports and several other debug connectors. The dev boards don't easily get into public hands though.
