A big plus for me is that the Mac driver doesn’t require a restart after install and pulling out the adapter without closing the term program doesn’t cause a kernel panic (in contrast to some other janky adapters I’d tried). I have no financial stake in these people, but I do love their product catalog: http://usbgear.com/USB-Serial.html I have a few of their cheap multi-port boxes out there as ghetto console servers. I think the oldest is going on at least 8 years now. And not having to make a bunch of custom cables like I did for the old RocketPort PCI cards, that’s priceless. Their catalog also generally lists which chipset the adapter uses, which is helpful for Mac and *nix users.
