Ports

Does C# have any classes or methods for transfering data
through serial and parellel ports?
I know that no hardware can be accessed directly in
windows XP and other NT based OS, but I think, it may be
possible to use windows too access ports
Does any body have any information please?

As of right now rs232 support is lacking in .net however you can find a good
article here on how to create a serial communications class using P/Invoke
and com interop.
