I've seen a lot of ads on the various mac sites for USB to serial converters. I've been wondering why, since most serial devices depend on two-way communication, these converters couldn't also be serial to USB converters, allowing us to tap into all the new USB peripherals. I'm sure there is a simple reason, but I'd appreciate it if someone would elucidate. fritz --------------------- william limbacher omaha, nebraska [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------- ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
