Customer Rating: Summary: Works Great! Comment: Installation went without a hitch and it has worked great from the beginning. Perhaps it's a bit more expensive than others, but I'd rather pay more for a trouble free product. Customer Rating: Summary: great USB-serial adapter Comment: This product is the solution to my old problems connecting to serial devices at work. It performs great, no complains at all. If you want some quality connection, this one should be with you. Customer Rating: Summary: best USB-Serial adapter Comment: The Keysapn High-speed USB-Serial adapter solved a problem that had me going through three other (cheaper) brand of adapter without good results. Plug in the Keyspan to my Windows XP pro PC, run the software, and voila, problem solved. Two days of messing around solved in ten minutes - now that's the best kind of PC solution.... Customer Rating: Summary: Great product: does exactly what I need Comment: Using this on a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.5 leopard. Works flawlessly to control my SUN boxes. Reliability is 95% (I've had this thing do strange things, but it was probably my fault...) This one's a little more expensive than others, well worth it... Customer Rating: Summary: Keyspan is a winner! Comment: Turns out, I've fallen in love with Keyspan products! I purchased this USB/Serial adapter at the same time as their wireless remote control for my laptop and both work perfectly for everything I needed them to do. I'd read for several years that the Keyspan USB/Serial adapter just plain works for anything requiring a serial port. Most (all?) laptops are no longer providing serial ports and some (many?) of us still have need for said serial port(s). While there are many lesser USB/Serial adapters available at the big-box stores, they have issues with some peripherals. I need to control computer-controlled telescopes which require a serial port. Many adapters will do this, but UPDATING the firmware or motor-control firmware requires a more capable adapter - this one works perfectly for any and all tasks I've come across. Enough said...it just plain works, and works perfectly. It comes with a CD-Rom containing the drivers necessary to make it work properly. Be sure to following the instructions and install the drivers BEFORE plugging in the adapter. I couldn't be happier with this device.
