I am using 3.2.6 and it is working well in many respects...the only
problem I have had so far is the USB with some devices.  Printers, and
now this serial port.  I hope they get this fixed soon.  It does seem to
be the one major issue with Virtual Box (and not only for windows hosts
but also Linux).
