Hey all,

Here's a braille display related question for the group.

I have a Braille display, which I love very much.  It is a powerBraille 80 from 
around 1999.  It doesn't have a USB port.  I've converted to Mac and I can't 
get it to power this old display.  It seems criminal to just give up on such a 
great piece of hardware.  

Does anyone know about powering peripherals without USB ports with new machines.

Thank You,
Adam
