This may be a simpler solution.  But it often falls quite short of other
solutions.  Particularly when software is running in a VM that needs to
connect to a modem to call a bank / CC company / etc. or needs to
connect to industrial equipment.

Conversely, drivers that create a virtual serial port that communicates
across the network will work for these types of special case scenarios.
