(Technically I'm running OX \n10.5, so does that make it OS X.V? Heh.)\n\nI found that almost anything made by FTDI works on anything I plug \nthem into, mainly because they publish standards for talking to their \nhardware (like all good hardware manufacturers do) whereas many of the \ncheap knock-offs haven't had drivers written for them.\n\nSo -- if manufacturers publish that they're using FTDI chipsets (few \ndo this either), those are usually a \"safe\" bet. That and always \nbuying hardware from reputable retailers who will take back things \nthat won't work without robbing you (so called \"re-stocking\" fees).\n\n--\nNate Duehr, WY0X\[email protected]\n\n\n\n", "attachments": [] }
