Laptop Control

Hi

I currently drive my astro gear with an old desktop computer.
The HEQ5 mount requires a serial port for the paddle and a parallel
port to drive the mount through an interface.
I would like to use a laptop computer for this purpose but it only has
usb ports. Any suggestions how I can make the conversion?

Cheers peter
