Lego Mindstorms told me that USB to Serial converters have not functioned
properly.  The actual conversation went as, "they (the convertors) don't
send correct information to the brick through the IR tower.  There are no
work arounds."  I have been informed that I must wait on the USB IR tower.

(...) There are external Serial ports that you can buy and plug into your USB ports. I would think that might be the easiest way to go. Eric Kingsley (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
