Are you looking for something like the keyspan usb to serial converter: http://www.keyspan.com/products/usb/USA19HS/ I'm invoolved in a project where we bought several hundred of those. We found it the best value for money product on the market. We needed them because we were connecting to a satellite network that used serial connections and the laptops we were using did not have a serial connection. I'm not part of the hardware support group for the project, but I have not heard of any keyspan failures in the 6 months we have been deploying them. FYI: Our project was NOT linux based, so I don't know what the quality of Linux driver would be, but I believe this generic type of device is supported by the vanilla kernel.
