Cory... if you don't need a lot of power, I believe I've seen several mini ITX with a lot of options including serial and hdmi / display port... I recently bought the new C64 for my son, and loaded it with an AMD E350 board... I know it has serial, pretty sure it has displayPort as well... 

Hmmm.   That'd be an option, but I think my raspberry pi will suffice for now.


(to Dave's point - $5 usb to serial can't be beaten)

Well, do you own anything that accepts DisplayPort? ;)
