Because they can go to 115Kbps, whereas serial ports will usually only support
up to 38.4kbps. But, higher speed consoles only gets you shorter cable runs,
with parallel limited to about what a KVM will get you. So, I guess, now
that I think about it, why you'd want to do that other than "because you can"
is beyond me as well.
