[time-nuts] Needed: The Real Serial USB Fix

[Peter Gottlieb]

What I would really like in Windows is a way to lock the configuration and make 
it more of an appliance which always worked the same way.  That way a small 
board talking to a Thunderbolt would always start up and just run.  I suppose I 
need to get away from Windows and climb the Linux learning curve.
