Problem solved!  Here's what the fellow wrote, in case this is of use to anybody

I tried the null modem last night but I was making other changes as well so when
it did not work I removed it.  That is the key.  A null modem or null modem
cable must be used.

If your other buyer is a programmer he can avoid having to use Robolab by going
to one of these two websites for the Control Interface code/dll files.

For Java development:

For VB.Net development:

These methods are much easier if he is a programmer.
For future reference, I am using a new Dell Precision M6500 laptop with windows
7 64bit loaded.  I have a VMware Virtual machine running with Windows XP SP3
loaded and I am using a USB - Serial converter mapped to com port 6.  I now have
the control interface working using the VB.Net demo program (website posted
above) and I am getting good readings on all sensors.
