Depends what kind of IR port is it. Is it IRDA or CIR? The former being high-speed/short distance, and the lattar being low speed/high distance. Most desktop or laptop computers would have IRDA; something sold as a media center may have CIR.

If you don't have CIR you'll need to buy a dedicated CIR receiver, such as the USB-UIRT or a Microsoft MCE receiver.
