[NTLK] Easy Connection to Hackintosh

[Sylvain Pilet]

Hi Jon,

Trying to find a USB/Serial Keyspan adapter. Reference: USA-X (only this one) the driver for MacOSX is available here:

<http://www.tripplite.com/shared/software/Driver/USA-19HS-Driver-v4-Mac-OS-X-10.9-10.11.zip>

There is only one available on Amazon, otherwise we occasionally find occasion on the web or in the shop.
