startech serial card

[randy turner]

hi chuck
i guess if it isn't allready built in speakup just isn't going to see it.
so i have two questions for all of you.
how far are we from usb support with speakup?
and the second question is
where can i buy a computer that will work with speakup??
thanks to all
randy turner
