You sure you aren't looking at the monitor output on the laptop.
Some laptops don't come with serial connectors.

If its blue, its for the monitor.

You're probably lookin at the external monitor output. You'll more than likely need a USB to serial adapter. Do some reading and choose carefully, as some have had problems with certain brands. I can tell you personally to stay away from Belkin
