In the case of Pi’s don’t forget that there are much faster ways to connect; even the oldest Pi’s have ethernet and Pi3’s have wifi & bluetooth built in. Opening a net connection to a Pi is likely to be much more useful than restricting yourself to serial. I’m sure you’re not making the mistake I see too often of people thinking a Pi is a microcontroller like an Arduino when it is actually a quite powerful computer with a real OS...
