The Belkin F5U103 USB/Serial adaptor will provide a true serial port 
with proper address and IRQ.  I've been using
two of them on a notebook with USB ports only, for both rig control (K2 
& IC-706) and FSK (with MMTTY).
They run about $60 and can be found at Best Buy and/or CompUSA.
Check out AA5AU's RTTY website for more info about USB/Serial adaptors.
