Warning!!! Cheap does not mean good. Get one that you know works, there are 
some cheap USB <=> serial adapters which will not handle a high data load. 
This is a common problem.

You can also get PCI cards with 2 COM ports, myself I have a PCI card with 
two serial ports and an external 4 port USB adapter.
Both are from Exsys, both work perfectly.
