I have been using devices like this one quite happily:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-2-0-9-Pin-Serial-RS-232-RS232-Adaptor-Converte
r-/130477800614?pt=UK_Computing_CablesConnectors_RL&hash=item1e61153ca6
At that price you can't really go wrong. I notice that there are some around
with a wire between the RS-232 connector and the USB plug, that might be a
good idea because on occasion I have unintentionally pulled the cable and
bent the device.

Rob

Subject: Choosing a USB RS232 converter
Lately I've been wanting to do RS232 stuff with my laptop instead of
desktop
machine. Would someone please recommend a good
USB-to-RS232
converter?
