All,

Status Report - For those interested in getting a generic USB connection
to work on a Mac:

  I've found that the FTDI drivers for the FT232BM work fine. The problem
is with "black box" legacy software that expects the port to be "A" for
modem and "B" for printer. This driver registers as "U". Hacking the
program to set to "U" works BUT, I don't have anything but test software,
so this doesn't fix the problem.

  I'm getting closer though (Thanks Ward!)
