PL2303-based USB-to-serial converters: available from maplin's for about £15. absolutely great, i use one to connect my laptop - ok _used_ to (it's dead) - to an embedded serial box, ran console on that, worked perfectly. bizarre, going back to 30-year-old technology, but there you go. l. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
