The Keyspan USB-19HS atleast has a standard USB B (device) socket on it so 
you can use it with any length of cable you see fit. :)

Mac, Windows, and Linux compatible.  2.4.22 and later kernels I believe 
have the full Keyspan driver in them so you should be able to just plug it 
in and oooo serial port, easier than the OS X where you do have to install 
drivers hah.  2.4.25 I know does, but I think they showed up around 
2.4.20-2.4.22...
