Greetings!

I have a USB infrared tower that came with the Mindstorm kit, and recently got an older laptop without USB (for free). I haven't seen the RS-232 infrared towers for sale, and was wondering if anyone has made a serial circuit that mimics the tower that I can make for use on the laptop?
here are schematics of the orginal tower

Or, can I use the Mindstorm Software (or other programming software) with the built-in IRDA port (on an IBM ThinkPad)?

Any suggestions?

Steve
