My most direct experience comes from amateur astronomy and accessibility computer accessories for the visually-impaired. RS-232 has been the preferred interface for custom-build devices, scientific instruments, and low-production devices far long after everybody started using USB for mice and high volume consumer devices. Not so easy: there is a lot more than mice and printers out there.
Oh, yes that might seem like a ludicrously obvious statement - "duh! nobody's been using Serial for a decade now". You should seriously consider USB as an interface for your project. The USB port has been starting to take over the duties of RS-232 for the last few years.
