Hi Everybody;
 As the KUSB discussion thread continues on, I'd like to suggest an
alternative.
All motherboards, except 40 year old ones, sport a PCIE port or two. There
exists a whole
bunch of converter cards that ride the PCIe bus and convert to serial ports,
parallel ports, printer ports
and most any other data transfer protocol.
 A good example of this can be found at Tigerdirect.com. A PCIe bus to
printer port with two com ports adapter
card for $39.95. What a deal! And never a USB problem again!
