Excellent!
Problem-solving is savage joy, and we are born to it, as Thomas Harris
has mentioned in the Lecter books. Sit back, grab a cup of tea, and feel
deeply satisfied with yourself, that man.
Once you've done that you might want to muse on what possessed anyone to
disable serial ports in the BIOS, since I can't think of a reason. But
that's for another day.
