[NTLUG:Discuss] USB to Serial devices.

[Steve Baker]

I have a bunch of hand (but old) RS-232 peripherals - and with my latest 
PC upgrade, I no longer have any PC/Laptop that has a serial port!  I 
see several USB-to-RS232 gizmo's out there.

Does anyone have a recommendation for one that plugs in and 'just works' 
under Linux or do I need to get complicated driver issues sorted out first?

Any particular brand to look out for - or to avoid?

Thanks!

   Steve.
