Okay, that's what I figured.

I've only got one serial port (and it is a console), so I don't have any
other way to connect but USB (also, I'm using a USB to serial adapter to
pull +5V from the USB port).  Everyone keeps saying that USB must be
bad, but I was trying to see just how much impact USB has.
