Subject: Re: USB vs. RS-232

Ahh, but now we have diverged from a stand alone device that will work
witout a computer to a computer interface. Sorry, no slippery slope
allowed here! We want a device that we can program, use for a few
months, then completly change, just like the patchs on our modulars!

Nice try though Grant.
