#156019 - Stay away from sparkfun it is no fun
these guys actually SELL circuitry that is proven not to work (OK, I have heard that this occasionally works with certain PCs)

http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/...cts_id=133

click on the schematic.

I stumbled over this in another forum where a sucker had actually paid money for it.

We have seen a lot of 'working' designs offered for free, but selling it takes the cake.

The ultimate irony is that had they made a fully fiunctional circuit (with a MAX232[equivalent]) it would have cost them no or little more.
