Awesome App
If you're looking for a way to connect your Mac to a serial port, this app is the way to go. I'm a broadcast technician, and I use this app to diagnose problems with some of my gear. While I've not used all the functions of this app yet, my experience with it so far has made it well worth the $30. Thanks Decisive Tactics! — Hunter_G_Anderson
