I recently bought a 10/100 Ethernet card for $12 US with free overnight shipping (US) at Outpost.com. Works fine at 10 and 100 Mbps. Apple Computer is a little more forward-looking: they dropped serial ports a couple years ago (SCSI & floppies too) and they never used those awkward parallel ports. Between Ethernet, USB, and FireWire, there are plenty of options for connecting things to computers without using incredibly outdated technology.
