Hello everyone. Although due to the architecture of the BasicStamp I understand why RS-232 was used on the PSIM initially, but it's not a huge task to incorporate a USB port . I did a post search and noticed that it's come up here. Has there been any further thoughts on this? Did the idea go anywhere? I would think a USB to be preferred , as it interfaces more readily with a larger number of systems - i,e, Macintosh. I've tried using RS232 plotter on a PC cad program while running Virtual PC on a Mac via a USB/232 adapter cable and the results were pretty dismal. -P
