doh!  I never even thought of that.   My friend who this is for is a little on the impatient side, so he already went out this morning and bought the adapter at Staples.  If that doesn't work, I'll pick up a PCI card for him.

bkenobi:
You can get an adapter for about a buck from dealextreme.  I picked one up for my ODBII reader.  Granted, I have not tried it with Win7 yet, but the docs/comments say it will work fine with the right drivers.

mgb:
I think you'll be fine with the usb to serial adapter

CCM:
Couldn't get the serial adapter to work.  I'm going to pick up a serial PCI card and throw that in.

AndyWarne:
If you drop me an email I can send the pinout of the cable if you want to make one. The Optipac is already a USB device.
