I'm using a little adapter with an FTDI chipset.  It's a no-name special 
picked up at a Hamfest for $15.  When I hosted DW4 on my Linux workstation 
the adapter easily supported 430kbs communication from a Coco FPGA.  No 
dropped data ever.  I haven't tried this with the Dockstar.

As many have mentioned on this list, it's probably best to avoid adapters 
based on the Prolific chipset.
