I think we're on about the same thing?

I was thinking about the direction from the hardware through into the
PC, ie an adapter into which you plug a 9-pin serial plug, and then
plug the other end of the adapter into a USB slot on the PC.

PC == lots and lots of USB slots
PC == not so very many serial ports unless you buy a special card.
