LOL. I certainly understand that last part.
Thank you, Milton, for the quick response. I have a different brand
adapter buried in a drawer somewhere and was curious if it was worth
tearing my office apart to find the thing. I think I'll do that and
give it a shot.
Thank you, again!

if it's a known fact that they won't.
I only have KeySpan here for testing, so I have never tried anything
else. Other products may or may not work and it will depend on what
OS X version too.
Several of Serial adapters died or were resurrected when Panther /
Tiger / Leopard was released because Apple changes the underlying
guts without testing or telling any developers what they are doing.
