Is anyone aware of a USB-to-Serial adapter that works in Fusion? I need (well, want) one to connect a shortwave radio to a program I wrote in Visual FoxPro "way-back-when", and it requires a 4800-8-N-1 RS-232 connection.
The keyspan should work as well as a few others. I regularly use a generic one I got a few years ago. I don't know what brand it is but it uses the Prolific drivers.

Thanks for the advice; I picked up a Keyspan USA-19H at my local Compusa (the one in my state that survived the cut) and it worked perfectly in my Bootcamp-based VM. Thanks again!

Slightly OT, but does the Keyspan USA-19H work for smart signaling to a UPS?
I had bought a serial-to-USB cable to communicate with OS X and an APC SmartUPS (serial port only), but that turned out to be a bad idea since you can't hotplug the cable or boot OS X without a signal being sent to the UPS to shutdown! Ooops.
