I really wish people would start allowing the serial-aliasing that exists
in modern Linux...  It's really much easier to find where your stuff is
plugged in at...

Oh? My 7610 is on /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1? Great news...

I wonder why I can't just pick that straight from a dropdown in the
software? Wouldn't that be much easier for those who aren't quite as *NIX
savvy?
