Is there anything that I need to look for in these USB to serial
converters? Any special software needed?
Thanks,

Be careful which one you buy. Some of the cheaper ones simply don't work.
I have one from Lindy, and it's never let me down.

i bought one from dick smiths (whilst in new zealand), just happened to be
on special so i thought it might come in handy. it really has!
the linux kernel has a stable driver that picks it up automagically in
debian. windows XP doesnt know what it is until you install a driver then
it works

Not a bug at all! grep -c only counts the number of matching lines, not
the number of occurances of a pattern in a line.
But when you stick -o in there... Hrrrmmm... I even switched their position
on the command line to see if that changed the output. Total cargo
