USB to 9-pin serial adaptor (for AP)
Just an FYI
The Cobb Access Port requires a 9-pin serial port to interface with a PC. A lot of the new PC's do not have a 9-pin port. I found a great "Serial Port to USB" adapter that works seemlessly with my AP.
Manufacturer: AirLink
Model: AC-USBS
Bought mine at Fry's ( www.outpost.com ) for $15

Well, I think that you my friend would be sh*t out of luck, being that you don't have a serial port AND you don't have windows. If you have an intel mac, you can install boot camp and get windows XP installed, and then use that adapter that he was talking about. That should work. Otherwise I would find a friend with a PC that will let you use it. If you dont have an intel mac, something like virtual PC MIGHT work, but I am not sure.
