[SI-LIST] Re: Pspice 6.0 can't find it's security dongle

PSRumbaugh,

     I had the same problem when trying to connect my ham radio
     equipment to a USB-RS232 adapter. The solution is to use
     a PCMCIA-RS232 adapter instead. PCMCIA adapters can be
     purchased online, new for $70 to $100 USD.

     If you can wait a week or two, they can also be purchased
     from ebay for under $20 USD.
