The 15 pin is the VGA display port, not a serial connection. You're right though, most modern PC's don't have a serial port or a parallel printer port either !!
At work we use 'Legacy Adapaters' which are plug on mini docking stations because a lot of older products still have the requirement for firmware upgrades etc. You can get USB to serial adapters and used to be able to get PCMCIA to serial adapters. Worth checking at your local PC bits supplier.
