Need laptop with parallel port

My old laptop has crapped out so I need a new one for ECU programming. I would rather buy a new one with a parallel port so I don't have to jump through hoops (and spend even more money) to go from USB to parallel. I also would rather not buy a used one and have to deal with more reliability problems. I can't find one from one of the major manufactures. Does anyone have a lead on one? Thanks.

If you are just looking for a beater to use, almost all of the current laptops have a parallel printer port. Might look on www.craigslist.org there in Houston. Otherwise Ebay.
