You are getting forgetful in your old age.  I am using Napco panels mostly.
I was not aware there was a USB to panel adaptor.  Of course that won't work
with panels that don't have a jack, but I program most of those from the
keypad anyway.  I'll get ahold of my rep and ask about one right away.

Still need that serial port for other stuff though.
